I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

Throughout the day, I will note the single-use plastics I use and consider the reusable options available to me.

During the workday, I will schedule time for daily rest during work days to practice work-life balance.

In my community, I will volunteer at a community shelter, food pantry or soup kitchen.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how lifestyle changes could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment.

I will spend 15 minutes learning about the climate and natural disaster risks in my area.

I will spend 15 minutes learning about invasive species and ways to reduce their impacts.

Each day, I will spend 15 minutes exploring a new area around my neighborhood (e.g., park, water body, nearby trail, community garden, green space, etc.).

I will visit ewg.org to learn about and use their Clean 15 and Dirty Dozen produce lists.

I will replace 15 minute(s) per day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside exercising, enjoying the sunrise/sunset, gardening, journaling, or practicing gratitude for nature.
