I will spend 15 minutes each day researching businesses owned by women, people of color, or immigrants that I can support when shopping.

I will encourage my office to hold meetings virtually whenever possible instead of requiring travel.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will shop from women-owned business(es) today.

I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.

I will commute by bike 20 mile(s) each day and avoid sending up to (___) lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).

I will spend at least 20 minutes researching and advocating for a comprehensive high speed rail network in my country/region.

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 spend at least 60 minutes researching how to properly dispose of bioplastics in my city and share this information with 10 friends, family and/or colleagues.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 0.11lbs (0.05kg) a day or 3.3lbs (1.6kg) a month by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

I will sign up for a Master Recycler/Composter program in my area.

I will explore the interactive map in the links below to find a supermarket that does not use HFC refrigerants near my home.

I will plan ahead to only use paper products made from post-consumer recycled paper for my home or office.

I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

I will spend 20 minute(s) learning about the climate impact of refrigerants and what climate-friendly refrigerants are by using the links provided

I will Practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.
