Marcie Ballard

I will work from home 5 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

I will not travel for meetings and will instead conduct them virtually.

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.

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

Racial inequity is both a sustainability and justice problem. I will support businesses owned by people of color in my community whenever I shop.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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