I will save up to 4 gallons (15 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will recycle 10 items at work and/or at home each day, making sure I review recycling program guidelines and only place accepted items that are clean, empty, and dry in the recycling bin.

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

I will purchase produce and/or meat from a local farmers market or food co-op to make 5 locally-sourced meals.

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 Practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.

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

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

I will replace 30 minute(s) of screen time per day with other activities, and limit my social media use to once per day.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 30 minute(s) each day. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)
