I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home or dorm room.

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

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

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 cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 4 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

I will volunteer 2 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

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.

I will enjoy 2 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.

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