I will spend 10 minutes learning about food deserts and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

I will spend at least 5 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus.

I will start a recycling program at my workplace or school. If a recycling program exists, I will advocate for ways to improve and expand it.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 3.4lbs (1.5kg) a month or 41lbs (18.6kg) a year by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

I will source 1 meal(s) each day from local producers.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

I will enjoy 2 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.

I will cook 1 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.

Both systemic and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

Access to affordable, nutritious food is a food justice issue. I will advocate for local and/or organic food options at work, on campus and/or in the spaces I frequent.

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