Makenna's actions
Health
Healthy Sleep
Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.
Waste
Use a Reusable Mug
I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.
Action Track: Building Resilience
Collect Rain Water
I will create a rain garden or bioswale or use rain barrels to collect water for outdoor watering needs.
Water
Brush My Teeth Without Running Water
I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.
Food
Reduce Animal Products
I will enjoy 3 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.
Waste
Skip the Straw
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.

Makenna Perry 10/25/2021 9:16 PMIve been doing great at my daily challenges. It has been nice bringing my own coffee cup and it keeps my coffee colder longer so it is a win win. I am continuing to leave my rain bucket out and use the rain to water my plants. -

Makenna Perry 10/16/2021 9:27 PMI think I might add some actions to my list tomorrow because im feeling these are a little too easy. i am enjoying doing a meatless meal a day but i thick I can do more. -
Makenna Perry 10/15/2021 8:47 PMToday was my first day fully trying the meatless/vegan meals. For breakfast and lunch I did no meat and I am successfully brushing my teeth without running water every time I brush them -
Makenna Perry 9/28/2021 6:17 PMI am going to be skipping straws when I get coffee, turning the water off while I brush my teeth, save rain water for my plants in my room, and doing 1 meal a day vegan. I chose all of the actions because they seemed like easy additions to my simple habits I already have.
