Brianna Bartsch

I will spend 15 minutes each day maintaining a record of all my purchases and learning about my spending habits.

Daily movement supports our physical and mental health. I will spend 25 minutes each day exercising in a way that feels good to me, such as walking, running, stretching, or dancing.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill. I will share a photo and reflection of this action on the feed.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

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

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cups to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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

I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottles from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those around the world who produce my food in order to make better choices when I shop.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 3.4lbs (1.5kg) a month or 41lbs (18.6kg) a year by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

I will report or fix leaking faucets in my dorm, apartment, or shared space to prevent water waste—up to 9 gallons (34 L) per day per faucet.

I will spend 20 minutes learning which plants support local native pollinators and grow some in containers, a campus garden, or at home if space allows.

I will sign up for a car-sharing service or coordinate ride shares with roommates, classmates, or campus peers to reduce the number of vehicles on the road.
