Caitlin Kessler

I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.

I will take a 15-minute walk outside each day.

I will join an outdoor restoration project in my community while observing best practices in my region for not spreading COVID-19.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 15 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will find out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in recycling dumpsters or my curbside bin.

I will work from home 3 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

I will commute by bike 8 mile(s) each day and avoid sending up to (___) lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 7 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.

Both systemic and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.
