Kiera Notz

I will spend 35 minute(s) per day outside, practicing gratitude (prayer, meditation, journaling, etc.) for Earth and my natural surroundings.

I will keep 3 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will spend 31 minutes doing an activity where I'm both moving my body and enjoying myself.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

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.

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

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

I will source 1 meal(s) each day from local producers.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those around the world who produce my food in order to make better choices when I shop.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

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.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 10 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.

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

I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.
