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.

I will carry all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me each day to raise my awareness of how much waste I produce.
