I will limit my social media use to once each day reducing my daily use by 30 minute(s)

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

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

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 make an appointment for my annual physical.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.

I will avoid sending 6 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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

I will work from home 4 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

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

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 spend 20 minutes doing an activity where I'm both moving my body and enjoying myself.
