I will spend 30 minutes learning about the ways climate change impacts health.

I will spend 10 minutes learning about the environmental footprint of the healthcare industry, how it impacts health, and ways I can help reduce it.

I will share one idea for making my organization more sustainable on our team's feed.

I will recognize 1 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 form a new green team or healthcare sustainability group.

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 15 minute(s) each day. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)

I will make 3 new healthcare connections through direct outreach or by joining a green team or industry group to learn from my peers, share best practices, and see if there are opportunities for collaboration.

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

I will go meat-free one day each week of the Challenge!

I will keep 4 forks, spoons, and/or knives from entering the landfill by using reusable utensils when eating at work.

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

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.
