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 recycle 3 items at work and/or at home each day, making sure I review recycling program guidelines and only place accepted items that are clean, empty, and dry in the recycling bin.

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.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 20 minute(s) each day.

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 enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or vegan meal(s) each day this week.

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

I will avoid printing 10 pieces of paper by "going digital" and printing double-sided whenever possible.

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 will make 1 appointments to support my health and well-being (primary care provider, dental, vision, etc.)

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 adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.
