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

I will replace 5 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will take a walk for 60 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce our carbon footprint and our impact on the environment.

I will enjoy 1 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

Sometimes protecting nature requires feeling connected to nature. I will invest 120 minutes in exploring and appreciating a natural area in my region, whether a forest, wetland, coastal area, or somewhere else.

I will research and support local farmers who have made the decision to not use synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

I will use my spending power to reward companies leading in creating or purchasing green energy and incentivize others to invest more in green energy.
