I will find out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in recycling dumpsters or my curbside bin.

I will take a 30-minute walk outside each day.

I will replace 60 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will make sure I’m registered to vote. While I’m at it, I’ll sign up to help others register too!

I will spend 60 minutes researching environmental justice and environmental racism concerns in my region, who is affected by them, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

I will volunteer 4 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will install an alternative energy system, such as solar electric systems or solar water heaters.

I will upgrade the windows or weatherstripping in my home or office to reduce air leaks and save on energy costs.

I will refrain from buying anything throughout the month (other than what is needed for health and safety) and instead live with what I have or learn about Buy Nothing groups in my area.

I will find out what stocks and bonds are in my investment account portfolio to determine if they align with my values (e.g. environmental, social responsibility, community).

Using the links provided below, I will research impact investing and determine if it is right for me.

Racial inequity is both a sustainability and justice problem. I will support businesses owned by people of color in my community whenever I shop.

I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about systemic racism.
