I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and ending unwanted subscriptions.

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

I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

I will enjoy 3 meatless meal(s) and/or 3 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will keep 6 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

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 3 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.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those who produce my food in other regions of the world to make better choices when I shop.

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.
