Abigail Stearn

I will use the resources below to find where I can forage for my own food locally.

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 not work more than 8 hour days each day to practice work-life balance.

I will spend at least 5 minutes assessing the vehicles used by my company or college and advocate for a purchasing policy focused on fuel-efficient vehicles.

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

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus to reduce pollution in the environment and in local communities.

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

I will create a rain garden or bioswale or use rain barrels to collect water for outdoor watering needs.

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.

I will call or write 1 public officials per day to advocate for more green spaces around my town, particularly in neighborhoods that currently lack equitable access to green spaces.

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