"My mission for this challenge is to be able to reduce my waste, help out my community more, and remove toxic chemicals from my home."
I will spend 30 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 4 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.
Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.
I will use the resource links provided and spend 30 minutes learning about the native populations that lived in my area prior to colonization, and what I can do to support those that still exist.
I will spend 15 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.
I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.
I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.
