Alexandra Gamboa

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

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

I will spend 5 minute(s) per day outside, practicing gratitude (prayer, meditation, journaling, etc.) for Earth and my natural surroundings.

I will spend 5 minutes practicing Loving-Kindness Meditation to nurture love and compassion for myself and others.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 20 minute(s) each day.

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 avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

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

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will host a watch party to screen a documentary about an issue that matters 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.
