I will make sure I’m registered to vote. While I’m at it, I’ll sign up to help others register too!

I will adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

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

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 9 gallons (34 L) of water per faucet every day.

I will spend 45 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

I will avoid buying toxic plastics - including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl - and instead replace them with durable non-plastic options.

I will spend at least 45 minutes learning about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

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

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will spend at least 45 minutes finding out what local laws, policies, and practices keep people from voting in my community.

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate. I will keep 1 container(s) out of the landfill each day.
