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

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

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

I will volunteer hour(s) in my community.

For an upcoming vacation, I will plan a staycation in my region.

Each day, I will spend 30 minutes exploring a new area around my neighborhood (e.g., park, water body, nearby trail, community garden, green space, etc.).
