Alex Staben

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 3.4lbs (1.5kg) a month or 41lbs (18.6kg) a year by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

I will start a recycling program at my workplace or school. If a recycling program exists, I will advocate for ways to improve and expand it.

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

I will volunteer 5 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will commute by bike 1 mile(s) each day and avoid sending up to 0.58 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, making sure to not contaminate recyclables with non-recyclables.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.
