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.

I will plant 2 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those who produce my food in other regions of the world to make better choices when I shop.

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

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.
