I will keep 10 forks, spoons, and/or knives from entering the landfill by using reusable utensils when eating at work.

I will avoid printing 5 pieces of paper by "going digital" and printing double-sided whenever possible.

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.

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

I will spend 15 minutes learning about how indoor air quality impacts health and commit to taking one action to improve indoor air quality in my living space.

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will volunteer 5 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will help others in need and prevent useful items from going to landfill by donating 10 items.

I will replace 30 minute(s) of screen time per day with other activities, and limit my social media use to once per day.
