I will enjoy 6 meatless meal(s) and/or 3 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

In my community, I will volunteer at a community shelter, food pantry or soup kitchen.

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

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

I will pledge to go vegetarian or vegan for a week with support from Julie Sinistore for this week with resources. The goal of this action is to reduce the environmental and social impacts of food choices and gain awareness about these impacts. If you would like to participate, please email [email protected] The pledge will run the week of April 25th and will feature a presentation by Julie about the environmental and social impacts of food on April 27th, at 1pm Pacific/4pm Eastern.

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.

WSP has signed the Structural Engineering Institute 2050 Commitment (SE 2050) to reduce embodied carbon in structural systems. Read WSP's newly published embodied carbon action plan (ECAP).

Do you know what it will take to reach net-zero? Do you know which technologies and innovations are needed to keep warming below 2°C or 1.5°C? Take five minutes to see if your ideas on investments can get us to net zero!

I will spend 5 minutes learning about these SDGs.

I will read the article "Improving Water Conservation Through an Equity Lens" on WSP Insights.
