I will help others in need and prevent useful items from going to landfill by donating 10 items.

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

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

I will keep 10 forks, spoons, and/or knives from entering the landfill by using reusable utensils when eating at work.

I will select a greener option when purchasing supplies, such as products that have environmental certifications, less packaging, or other environmental attributes, or come from local vendors.

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 enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors, or purchase items second-hand to reduce resource use.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 20 minute(s) each day.
