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

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

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

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

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

I will keep 5 forks, spoons, and/or knives from entering the landfill by using reusable utensils when eating at work.

I will enjoy 5 meatless meal(s) and/or vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will schedule coffee breaks, lunches, and/or check-in meetings with 3 coworkers to promote connectivity in my workplace.
