I will reduce the amount of water flushed and save up to 11 gallons (41 L) of water each day by installing a toilet tank bank.

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

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 3 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of plants and trees at my home or work.

I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will use public transit 25 mile(s) each day and avoid sending up to 4.1 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).

I will save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.
