I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will calculate my Water Footprint to learn about my tap water use and "virtual water" use.

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate. I will keep 1 container(s) out of the landfill each day.

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

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.
