I will only purchase wood and paper products from ecologically certified sources like Forest Stewardship Council.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of geothermal energy and consider investing in this technology.

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of micro wind.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce our carbon footprint and our impact on the environment.
