I will spend at least 30 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of micro wind.

I will spend at least 40 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of geothermal energy and consider investing in this technology.

To learn more about what is and is not recyclable in our area as well as how to properly dispose of hard-to-recycle materials to reduce my harmful impacts on the local environment AND learn how indigenous peoples and POC are more likely to be impacted by waste sites and pollution on a global scale.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of trees and plants in my yard.

I will commute by bike 1 miles each day and avoid sending up to (___) lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, including electronics and metals.

I will take a walk for 20 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.

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