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

I will take a walk for 20 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will support a community garden by volunteering, donating, or advocating for a new or existing one.

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will start a compost bin where I live.

Sometimes protecting nature requires feeling connected to nature. I will invest 60 minutes in exploring and appreciating a natural area in my region, whether a forest, wetland, coastal area, or somewhere else.

Insects are a low impact alternative to mammals and fish for protein.
