Andi Sammons

I will replace 30 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

I will practice the seven principles of Leave No Trace when doing nature activities alone or with family and friends.

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

I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will disconnect from my email when not at work or school, using my personal time for endeavors that help me live out my values.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided when I have to print documents.

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 make an appointment for my annual physical.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

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

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

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 4 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
