Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 1 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

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

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 adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

I will spend 2 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors.

I will replace my lawn with a drought-tolerant landscape and save the water, money, and time I used to spend cutting the grass.

I will install alternative energy systems, such as solar electric systems or solar water heaters.
