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

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

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.

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

I will volunteer 10 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

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

I will increase my step count by 100 each day and will take breaks from sitting by briefly getting up and moving once per hour during the day.

I will recycle 5 items at work and/or at home each day, making sure I review recycling program guidelines and only place accepted items that are clean, empty, and dry in the recycling bin.

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 make 3 appointments to support my health and well-being (primary care provider, dental, vision, etc.)

I will improve hydration by drinking an additional 8oz 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.
