After researching the incentives at the federal, state, utility, and local levels, I will contact a local installer/distributor for a solar panel installation consultation on my house.

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during Drawdown Ecochallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation, and commit to reducing my food waste throughout the challenge.

I will source 80 percent of my food from local producers each day. This could include signing up for a local CSA, buying from a farmer's market, visiting a food co-op, foraging with a local group, or growing my own ingredients.

I will commute by bike 10 miles each day and avoid sending up to (___) lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.

I will enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meals each day of the challenge.
