At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 120 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

I will research the social or environmental issues in my community that matter to me and tell 2 friends and/or colleagues each day about what I learn.

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

I will spend 90 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will enjoy 3 meatless meal(s) and/or 4 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

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

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will enjoy 2 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.
