At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 15 minutes researching which plants support local pollinators and plant some in my area.

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 enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

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.

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

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

I will replace 20 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 15 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.

I will spend 15 learning about the past and present indigenous communities in my regions and what I can do to be supportive.
