I will work from home 5 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

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

I will improve hydration by drinking an additional 16oz of water each day. I will do this by drinking additional servings of water or by drinking water in place of other less healthy beverage options.

I will help others in need and prevent useful items from going to landfill by donating 1 items.

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

I will promote equity and support my community by purchasing items at 1 diverse- and/or locally-owned businesses.

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 save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

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 donate blood in my community to make sure there are adequate supplies for routine medical services and emergencies.

I will keep 1 disposable cup(s) and/or bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle, cup, or mug.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 15 minute(s) each day.

I will refuse 2 of single-use paper or plastic bags each day by bringing my own reusable bags or carrying purchased goods another way.

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.

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.
