Giving back has been something my parents have instilled in me, and gratefully has been something my school has implemented this practice as well. A sense of joy and gratitude of giving of myself in ways that can assist anywhere from 1-100 individuals/animals/trees - it feels amazing. One thing to do is to transfer a little kindness to someone else - that is priceless, in my opinion.

Encourage as often as possible, perhaps in huddles for certain units to recycle certain devices that are able to be "reprocessed." This trickles down from providers to all staff, and non-clinical staff. A little goes a long way, and if we are mindful, it can save possibly thousands (money-wise) for future generations.

As one who has had the opportunity to travel to countries that may not have a lot: food-wise; or perhaps have smaller accommodations for their food, it allows me to be mindful. My family of 2 (+2 dogs) with two people that work opposite schedules, it is important to sustain the products that are bought locally so those that grow them can continue to provide. This has always been important for me; thus shopping every couple days, keeps food from being wasted, and more inclined on purchasing as needed and diversifying our diet.

Noise pollution. This is something that sometimes cannot be contained, unless there are certain times of the day in which: construction is done, allowing people that work 9-5PM - to perhaps get a full night's rest
