Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper each day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.

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 use an energy meter to monitor my energy use and identify opportunities to save power.

I will upgrade the windows or weatherstripping in my home or office to reduce air leaks and save on energy costs.

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

I will work from home 1 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will spend 0 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

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.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, making sure to not contaminate recyclables with non-recyclables.

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 enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 0 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

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.
