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

I will save up to 4 gallons (15 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will volunteer 4 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will improve hydration by drinking an additional 32oz 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.

I will donate blood in my community to make sure there are adequate supplies for routine medical services and emergencies.

Hand washing dishes can use more energy and hot water than running a full dishwasher. To save water, I will scrape instead of rinsing dishes before loading them into the dishwasher, and only run it when it is full.

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.
