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.

I will plant 4 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

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

Access to public transportation is a social justice issue! I will learn about the need for public transportation in my community and tell 2 friends each day about the issue.

I will spend 5 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.
