Luana Taquette Dalvi

I pledge to take one action that improves the sustainability of my organization in 2025. It can be an action from this challenge or another action that improves resource stewardship.

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

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

I commit to dedicating 5 minutes to exploring my organization's quality improvement resources and examining how quality improvement methodologies can support sustainability projects.

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

I will spend 5 minutes learning about greenwashing and how to avoid it.

I will Practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.

I will keep 2 forks, spoons, and/or knives from entering the landfill by using reusable utensils when eating at work.
