What can lack of access to nutritious food affect a community? How can having access to nutritious food help a community become more resilient?

I will visit a nearby farm to pick my own fruits and veggies.

I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

I will avoid wasting water while waiting for the shower or sink to heat up.

Ditch the electronics and spend some time outside doing an activity with your friends

I will take a walk outside for 5 minutes each day.

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home or dorm room.

I will limit my social media use to once each day reducing my daily use by 20 minute(s)

I will replace 20 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.

I will take a 5-minute walk outside each day.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

We may find more meaning and joy in life when our actions are aligned with our personal values. I will determine what my top 3-5 core values are so that I can better align my actions with them.

I will spend 10 minutes each day maintaining a record of all my purchases and learning about my spending habits.

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

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