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

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

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

I will prevent water from being wasted by reporting one or more leaky faucets, toilets, or other water leaks to my organization's facilities team for repair.

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

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips, or walking and biking instead.

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

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