"I recently have made some major lifestyle changes, and many are listed here, Excited to have a public forum to help keep me on track!"
I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.
Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.
Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.
I will adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.
At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 60 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.
I will enjoy 3 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.
I will replace 60 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.
I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.
I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.
