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

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

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 spend at least 50 minute(s) touring (virtually or in person) a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about our local waste and waste recovery streams.

I will start a recycling program at my workplace or school. If a recycling program exists, I will advocate for ways to improve and expand it.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 3.4lbs (1.5kg) a month or 41lbs (18.6kg) a year by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

I will spend 50 minutes learning about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus to reduce pollution in the environment and in local communities.

I will spend 88 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided when I have to print documents.

I will keep 3 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

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