Hannah Theaker

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 1 conversations.

I will make sure I’m registered to vote. While I’m at it, I’ll sign up to help others register too!

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

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

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.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 5 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 15 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

Racial inequity is both a sustainability and justice problem. I will support businesses owned by people of color in my community whenever I shop.

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.

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.
