I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

I will spend at least 1 minutes learning about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

I will replace 5 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will spend at least 1 minutes visiting a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about the waste stream.

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

I will spend 1 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

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.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 1 minute(s) each day.

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 spend 1 minutes learning about food deserts and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

I will spend at least 4 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

I will carry all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.
