I will create a rain garden or bioswale or use rain barrels to collect water for outdoor watering needs.

I will spend 60 minutes learning about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.

I will use the 'Learn More' resources below to find where I can forage for my own food locally.

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 spend 60 minutes learning about food deserts and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will watch 2 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 find out what stocks and bonds are in my investment account portfolio to determine if they align with my values (e.g. environmental, social responsibility, community).

I will replace 60 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will install a greywater catchment system in my home.

I will volunteer 8 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will sign up for a local CSA (Community-Supported Agriculture).

I will keep 5 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
