Throughout the day I will track my purchases and then research the companies making these goods.

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.

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

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

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 spend 15 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.

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

I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste.

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

I will spend 15 minutes learning about induction cooking and consider if I could add this to my food prep methods.

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

I will volunteer to tutor in my community at least once this month.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 20 minutes researching which plants support local pollinators and plant some in my area.
