Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 30 minutes learning about which items are recyclable both at my workplace and at home since they may be different, and recycle only those items.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for every day.

I will promote a positive environment and uplift others by performing 1 random act(s) of kindness.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

Lighting makes up approximately 10% of hospitals' energy use on average. I will save energy by turning off unnecessary lights when not in use and when I am the last one to leave a space.

I will turn my computer monitor(s) off at my work station when not in use to save energy (I will follow my organization's IT instructions for keeping on, turning off, or restarting computers).

I will make 1 appointments to support my health and well-being (primary care provider, dental, vision, etc.)

I will avoid sending food waste to the landfill by composting my food scraps.

I will repair an item, such as clothing or an appliance, for myself, a friend, family member, or neighbor.
