Action Track: Healing and Renewal
Nurture Self-Compassion
Do at Home
I will spend 10 minutes nurturing my Self-Compassion.
Community
Support Comerica's National Day of Service
As an extension to Comerica's National Day of Service in September, consider conducting a virtual volunteer action that supports our communities. Since there are no organized in-person river, beach or lake clean-ups in most communities this year, if you would like, you can consider cleaning up around your house and neighborhood to support your local environment as neighborhood storm drains commonly drain to local water bodies. Please do not invite others outside of your household if you choose this action.
Waste
Research Local Waste Sites
Do at Home
I will spend 60 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.
Waste
Use a Reusable Water Bottle
Do at Home
I will keep 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
Waste
Use a Reusable Mug
Do at Home
I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.
Waste
Skip the Straw
Do at Home
Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 6 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
Participant Feed
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?

Tammy Coor 9/24/2020 10:16 AMPlastic straws are designed to only be used one time for a convenient few minutes and then discarded to pollute our planet for centuries to come. I have always used straws as long as I can remember. I have never put a lot of thought into the impact it may have on this planet. Should I need a straw now I use paper. I have also bought this to the attention of coworkers and ask when eating out for paper straws. Creating the awareness, and showing by your example is how we can help eliminate.
