Small acts of kindness and gratitude can brighten someone's day and create a positive ripple effect. I will express gratitude to people or perform random acts of kindness to spread joy and connection.

Each of us has a water footprint, directly linked to our daily activities as well as the water required in the production of things we use each day.

I will save up to 4 gallons (15 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will calculate my digital carbon footprint and take steps to reduce my CO2 emissions.
