Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 15 minutes learning about which items are recyclable both at my workplace and at home since they may be different, and recycle only those items.

I will spend 60 minutes learning about the items my organization collects for medical device reprocessing and share this information with colleagues.

Whether it is to hear his/her/their voice, it will get myself outside myself and think of the other person over the phone.

I will recognize 4 colleague(s) for their sustainability efforts by thanking them on our team feed, in-person, by email, and/or through my organization's recognition platforms.

I will keep 5 disposable cup(s) and/or bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle, cup, or mug.

I will promote a positive environment and uplift others by performing 5 random act(s) of kindness.

I will spend 240 minutes learning about the ways climate change impacts health.

Stop by the Environmental Sustainability Team's Friday open house during Earth Month to drop off an unused/dead e-waste item for recycling with PCs for People! Open House is every Friday on the Armour Academic Center 1st floor (alley side) every Friday from 10a-1pm.

I will volunteer 2 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will purchase produce and/or meat from a local farmers market or food co-op to make 2 locally-sourced meals.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips, or walking and biking instead.

I will refuse 10 of single-use paper or plastic bags each day by bringing my own reusable bags or carrying purchased goods another way.
