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 spend 20 minutes learning about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

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

I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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 spend 120 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

I will keep 3 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will spend at least 60 minutes visiting a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about the waste stream.

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

I will plant 1 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.
