I will spend at least 30 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

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

I will host a house party with 2 friends and/or colleagues to watch a movie or present a guest speaker on an environmental issue that matters to me.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will replace 10 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will avoid sending 5 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

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 20 minute(s) each day.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 5 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

Do not use elevators for three weeks.
