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

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

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will avoid buying toxic plastics - including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl - and instead replace them with bioplastic or durable options.

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.
