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 replace 15 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

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

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

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

I will enjoy the sunrise and/or sunset each day.

I will find out who in my state makes decisions that impact the environment and express my support for more environmental actions.

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

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

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

Educate my students on water resource issues, impacts of water use, groundwater resources, and things they can do to reduce their consumption.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

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.
