I will spend 60 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

I will join an outdoor restoration project in my community.

I will adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

I will keep 6 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus.
