I will test drive an electric vehicle at the Forth showcase in downtown Portland.

I will make 0 phone call(s) and/or send 3 emails each day to public officials to advocate for a more comprehensive public transportation system in my region.

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

I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.

I will install alternative energy systems, such as solar electric systems or solar water heaters.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 9 gallons (34 L) of water per faucet every day.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 each day that I do this.

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

I will not travel for meetings and will instead conduct them virtually.

I will spend at least 60 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

I will cook 1 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.
