I will replace manual thermostats with programmable ones.

I will upgrade the windows or weatherstripping in my home or office to reduce air leaks and save on energy costs.

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

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

I will replace 20 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will keep 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

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