I will spend 10 minutes learning about greenwashing and how to avoid it.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 3 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 pledge to take one action that improves the sustainability of my organization in 2025. It can be an action from this challenge or another action that improves resource stewardship.

I commit to dedicating 5 minutes to exploring my organization's quality improvement resources and examining how quality improvement methodologies can support sustainability projects.

I will recycle 2 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.
