I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

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

I will improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or some other small improvement.

I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 each day that I do this.
