I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.

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

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

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

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

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