I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

What can lack of access to nutritious food affect a community? How can having access to nutritious food help a community become more resilient?

I will take a walk outside for 20 minutes each day.

I will not work more than 8 hour days each day to practice work-life balance.

I will disconnect from my email when not at work or school, using my personal time for endeavors that help me live out my values.

I will replace 30 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 10 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

I will enjoy 3 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.

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

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 avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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

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.
