I will read the Ecochallenge feed each day and comment on posts by people who I don't know, but whose content inspires or interests me.

Your voice matters! Help us improve the One Healthcare Ecochallenge by taking our survey, available starting April 23rd.

I will recognize 3 colleague(s) for their sustainability efforts on our team feed, in-person, by email, and/or through my organization's recognition platforms.

I will promote a positive environment and uplift others by performing 3 random act(s) of kindness.

I will keep 3 disposable cup(s) and/or bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle, cup, or mug.

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

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

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

I will replace 60 minute(s) of screen time per day with other activities, and limit my social media use to once per day.

Check out Espresa's Platform-- did you know you can get reimbursed for at home composting? Composting reduces GHG emissions by as much as 70% vs landfilling organic waste.

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

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

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 will spend 30 minutes learning about what medical device reprocessing is and how it works, including whether my organization has a program, and if so, which items it collects.
