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

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 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 spend 8 minutes learning about induction cooking and consider if I could add this to my food prep methods.

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

I will learn about local, national and international climate action organizations that I could join and connect with one or more.

Each day, I will spend 8 minutes exploring a new area around my neighborhood (e.g., park, water body, nearby trail, community garden, green space, etc.).

Using Seafood Watch's list, I will enjoy 1 sustainable seafood meal(s) each day.

I will spend 10 minutes learning about equitable food access and how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

I will spend 18 learning about the past and present indigenous communities in my regions and what I can do to be supportive.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning more about the barriers to women and girl's equal participation and representation around the world.

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.
