I will use an energy meter to monitor my energy use and identify opportunities to save power.

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

I will install a greywater catchment system in my home.

I will limit my social media use to once each day reducing my daily use by 20 minute(s)

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus to reduce pollution in the environment and in local communities.

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

I will save up to 6 gallons (23 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will research tool libraries and other sharing economy organizations in my area and rent instead of buy next time I need something they offer.

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

Become a monthly donor to TreeSisters and contribute to the million tree goal we kicked off through our Music Festival.

Join Devaa Haley Mitchell in conversation with Clare DuBois, founder of Treesisters for a live Q&A called For The Love of Trees! During the dialogue, they’ll be discussing some of these themes: Why planting trees is so fundamental to healing our planet. What other practical actions can we each take to be the best possible stewards of our planet. How nature connectedness can transform your life and leadership. Why women are more disproportionately impacted by climate change than men. How the funds donated to TreeSisters are spent. Lastly, any answers to YOUR questions!

For individuals who would also like to calculate their carbon footprints. The creation of this particular Action was inspired by Kahea Pacheco, the Ceo of Women's Earth Alliance.
