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

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

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 keep disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

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

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

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

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

Using the links provided below, I will research impact investing and deterimine if it is right for me.

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 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 reduce food waste and save money by prepping for meal(s) each day, only buying the ingredients I need.

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

I will watch documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.
