I will spend 30 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

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

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

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option.

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

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will plant 3 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.

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

My goal is to reduce energy needed for elevators and of course this would be my personal EXERCISE and motivation to move more. :-)

Using the links provided below, I will research impact investing and deterimine if it is right for me.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

I will cook 2 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.
