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.

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

I will spend 30 learning about the past and present indigenous communities in my regions and what I can do to be supportive.

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

I will spend 20 minutes learning about how and where to dispose of medications and chemicals properly.

I will mend a piece of clothing for myself, family or friends.

I will replace 30 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.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about invasive species and ways to reduce their impacts.

I will use the communication methods I read about to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly (i.e., my roommate, parents, co-worker, partner, classmates, or children).

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option.
