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

I will spend 5 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 adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

I will spend 10 minutes learning about how indoor air quality impacts health and commit to taking one action to improve indoor air quality in my living space.

Hand washing dishes can use more energy and hot water than running a full dishwasher. To save water, I will scrape instead of rinsing dishes before loading them into the dishwasher, and only run it when it is full.

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

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will purchase produce and/or meat from a local farmers market or food co-op to make 3 locally-sourced meals.

I will refuse 3 of single-use paper or plastic bags each day by bringing my own reusable bags or carrying purchased goods another way.

I will reflect on how I am feeling and express myself through writing, art, music, physical activity, or another creative way to enhance well-being
