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

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

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

I will turn my computer monitor(s) off at my work station when not in use to save energy (I will follow my organization's IT instructions for keeping on, turning off, or restarting computers).

I commit to dedicating 20 minutes to exploring my organization's quality improvement resources and examining how quality improvement methodologies can support sustainability projects.

I will promote equity and support my community by purchasing items at 4 diverse- and/or locally-owned businesses.

I will schedule coffee breaks, lunches, and/or check-in meetings with 2 coworkers to promote connectivity in my workplace.

I will spend 5 minutes learning about how indoor air quality impacts health and commit to taking one action to improve indoor air quality in my living space.

I pledge to take one action that improves the sustainability of my organization in 2025. It can be an action from this challenge or another action that improves resource stewardship.

I will take one action to support local wildlife, such as adding a food or water source, creating shelter/habitat, preventing light pollution, eliminating bird strikes, or another action.
