Cheap, single-use items and disposable packaging end up blowing around as litter more often in poor and POC-majority neighborhoods. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

I will make sure I’m registered to vote. While I’m at it, I’ll sign up to help others register too!

I will spend 2 minutes learning about the experiences of trans, femme, and/or nonbinary people.

I will offer to help 6 person(s) who are in need each day.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 9 conversations.

I will connect with a local nonprofit, environmental or otherwise, and find out how I can get involved or become a member.

I will spend 5 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

I will meet 10 new neighbor(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 keep 6 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will decide which social or environmental issue in my community is most important to me and tell 10 friends and/or classmates each day about the issue.
