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

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 30 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.

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

I will offer to help 1 person(s) who are in need each day.

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

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

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

I will keep track and reduce my consumption of refined sugars, including sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 each day that I do this.

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.

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.
