Tony Hill

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

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 switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

I will watch 2 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.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 15 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

I will save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.

I will reduce the amount of water flushed and save up to 11 gallons (41 L) of water each day by installing a toilet tank bank.

I will not work more than 8 hour days each day to practice work-life balance.

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

I will connect with a local nonprofit, environmental or otherwise, and find out how I can get involved or become a member.
