I will replace or remove the palm oil, coffee, and cocoa products in my current diet that are known to contribute to deforestation.

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

I will only purchase wood and paper products from ecologically certified sources like Forest Stewardship Council.

I will avoid buying and using 2 single-use plastics and instead replace them with durable options.

I will spend at least 15 minutes researching the impact of my diet to see how it contributes to deforestation.

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

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

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

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 enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.
