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

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 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 collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

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

I will replace 6 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 each day that I do this.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 5 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will keep 4 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
