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

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 not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper each day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of plants and trees at my home or work.

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

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

I will naturally heat and cool my house, office, or dorm room by opening or closing my windows, curtains, and blinds, and by using fans.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
