I will avoid sending food waste to the landfill by composting my food scraps.

I will connect with the Indiana Native Plant Society to possibly give a talk or share information about the benefits of natives in our backyards and broader communities.

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 donate blood in my community to make sure there are adequate supplies for routine medical services and emergencies.

How can you personally help address climate change? Complete the climate action venn diagram at ayanaelizabeth.com/climatevenn and share your climate action in the feed.

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 take one action to support local wildlife, such as adding a food or water source, creating shelter/habitat, preventing light pollution, eliminating bird strikes, or another action.
