I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

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

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, making sure to not contaminate recyclables with non-recyclables.

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