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

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 60 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

I will plant 5 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.

I will spend 45 minutes researching the impact of old harmful refrigerants on our environment.

I will use an energy meter to monitor my energy use and identify opportunities to save power.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will replace 10 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce our carbon footprint and our impact on the environment.

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 begin, or continue, on the journey of forgiving myself and/or other(s). I may do this through journaling, meditation, prayer, and/or talking with a licensed healthcare professional.

I will spend at least 60 minutes learning about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

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

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

Swapping to a hybrid vehicle has been a goal for a while now. I have made the swap and will use this car for as much travel as possible in the future!

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching and weighing my options to see if a hybrid or electric vehicle makes sense for my lifestyle.

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

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will avoid sending 10 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will keep 5 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will spend 30 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.
