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 promote a positive environment and uplift others by performing 3 random act(s) of kindness.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option.

I will plant 2 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard. Check out resources for which tree species are best to plant in your area.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for every day.

I will enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will spend 15 minutes learning about greenwashing and how to avoid it.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

I will pick up 3 piece(s) of litter each day.

I will select a greener option when purchasing supplies, such as products that have environmental certifications, less packaging, or other environmental attributes, or come from local vendors.
