Waleyshka Ramos (CHO)

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

Both systemic and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

I will spend 5 minutes researching environmental justice and environmental racism concerns in my region, who is affected by them, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

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

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

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

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 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will decide which social or environmental issue in my community is most important to me and tell 1 friends and/or classmates each day about the issue.

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

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 spend 30 minutes doing an activity where I'm both moving my body and enjoying myself.

I will spend 20 minutes practicing Loving-Kindness Meditation to nurture love and compassion for myself and others.
