Mishell Knoess

I will tend to a garden each day, or work on starting one.

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 plant native species, landscape with water-efficient plants, and use eco-friendly fertilizers.

I will practice the seven principles of Leave No Trace when doing nature activities alone or with family and friends.

I will take a 10-minute walk outside each day.

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

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.

I will spend at least 30 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 my lawn with a drought-tolerant landscape and save the water, money, and time I used to spend cutting the grass.
