I will refuse 1 of single-use paper or plastic bags each day by bringing my own reusable bags or carrying purchased goods another way.

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

I will help others in need and prevent useful items from going to landfill by donating 6 items.

I will reduce my transportation footprint by driving 5 miles by EV instead of gas-powered vehicle.

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

I will promote a positive environment and uplift others by performing 1 random act(s) of kindness.

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.
