I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will carry all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will keep track and reduce my consumption of refined sugars, including sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

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

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 45 minute(s) each day.

Cheap, single-use items and disposable packaging end up blowing around as litter more often in poor and POC-majority neighborhoods. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 1 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 0 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

Fast fashion contributes to mass pollution and unethical treatment of people all over the world. I pledge to ban from shopping from these companies for the entirety of the semester (and hopefully longer). Instead, when I need clothes, I will buy from fair trade/certified ethical/conscious fashion companies.
