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

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 2 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 fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 9 gallons (34 L) of water per faucet every day.

I will use public transit 10 mile(s) each day and avoid sending up to 1.64 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.
