Autumn Maguregui

I will enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.

I will decide which social or environmental issue in my community is most important to me and tell 2 friends and/or classmates each day about the issue.

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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 de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home or dorm room.

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

I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

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 2 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
