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

I will find out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in recycling dumpsters or my curbside bin.

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option.

I will spend 30 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

I will improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or some other small improvement.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 30 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors.

I will spend quality time with family and friends by playing low-tech game(s) and/or through the spirit of imagination.

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

I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 each day that I do this.
