Robert Rawle

I will express my love and gratitude for our planet by writing a love letter, poem, song or taking a picture. I will share it with others on my social media channels, in person, or as an Earth Month Ecochallenge feed reflection.

Each day, I will spend 10 minutes exploring a new area around my neighborhood (e.g., park, water body, nearby trail, community garden, green space, etc.).

I will spend at least 20 minutes learning more about the barriers to women and girl's equal participation and representation around the world.

I will spend 20 minutes learning about gender diversity.

I will save up to 6 gallons (23 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers. Tip: Use a timer to practice or count to 60 a few times.

I will spend 5 minutes learning about these SDGs.

I will spend 10 minutes learning about where my energy comes from.

I will spend 10 minutes learning about the climate and natural disaster risks in my area.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 0 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

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

I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste.

I will do one or more of the following actions in my yard, or volunteer in my community: plant indigenous plants, landscape with water-efficient plants, add mulching, replace a lawn, and/or use eco-friendly fertilizers.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 20 minutes researching which plants support local pollinators and plant some in my area.
