I will spend at least 40 minutes finding out what local laws, policies, and practices keep people from voting in my community.

I will watch 5 documentary(ies) about systemic racism.

I will install a greywater catchment system in my home.

I will plant native species, landscape with water-efficient plants, and use eco-friendly fertilizers.

I will enjoy 2 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 each day that I do this.

I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 6 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
