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 improve hydration by drinking an additional 20oz of water each day. I will do this by drinking additional servings of water or by drinking water in place of other less healthy beverage options.

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

I will spend at least 5 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will turn my computer monitor(s) off at my work station when not in use to save energy (I will follow my organization's IT instructions for keeping on, turning off, or restarting computers).

I will learn one new fact about my community each day (history, geography, local wildlife, resources, programs, current issues, goals, etc.)

I will work from home 4 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

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 adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.
