Gina Thoebes

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

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

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.

During the workday, I will schedule time for daily rest during work days to practice work-life balance.

I will spend 10 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.

I will replace 10 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 practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, peer, or someone who has a different experience/identity for 2 conversations per day.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how lifestyle changes could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment.

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