Emily Szramowski

I will call or write 2 public officials per day to advocate for more green spaces around my town, particularly in neighborhoods that currently lack equitable access to green spaces.

I will reduce food waste and save money by prepping for 2 meal(s) each day, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will spend 20 minutes learning about restorative justice and conflict resolution opportunities in my own community or state.

Individual actions are important, but people and organizations working together can make a real impact. I will share a carbon calculator with a friend and invite them to calculate the carbon footprint of their household.

I will limit my social media use to once each day reducing my daily use by 20 minute(s)

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 10 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

I will journal each day about my experiences in nature.

I will spend at least 15 minutes researching and weighing my options to see if a hybrid or electric vehicle makes sense for my lifestyle.

I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

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