Sweety Jhamb

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

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

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 improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or some other small improvement.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will avoid sending 5 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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 make an appointment for my annual physical.

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

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

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

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 work from home 2 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.
