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

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

I will work from home 2 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 15 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.)

I will increase my step count by 500 each day and will take breaks from sitting by briefly getting up and moving once per hour during the day.

I will make 3 appointments to support my health and well-being (primary care provider, dental, vision, etc.)

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

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

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

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