I will spend 10 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 1 conversations.

I will host a watch party to screen a documentary about an issue that matters to me.

I will take a walk outside for 10 minutes each day.

I will spend 5 minutes learning about the perils of fast fashion and will buy my clothes at second-hand stores when I shop.

I will limit my social media use to once each day reducing my daily use by 60 minute(s)

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 5 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

I will journal each day about my experiences in nature.

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 10 minute(s) each day. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 10 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard or local community garden.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

My goal is to create a greenhouse in my backyard. I want to plant vegetables and some fruit. This will cut down on my grocery bill and I will be eating local foods.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will enjoy 2 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.

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.
