I will keep 4 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.
