I will work from home 2 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

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.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 20 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 avoid printing 2 pieces of paper by "going digital" and printing double-sided whenever possible.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about the items my organization collects for medical device reprocessing and share this information with colleagues.

Lighting makes up approximately 10% of hospitals' energy use on average. I will save energy by turning off unnecessary lights when not in use and when I am the last one to leave a space.

I will keep 1 forks, spoons, and/or knives from entering the landfill by using reusable utensils when eating at work.

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).
