I will bring my own reusable cutlery for lunch at school rather than use disposable ones.

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 20 minute(s) each day. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 10 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard or local community garden.

Whether I am either at ISB or at home, every time something goes wrong or somebody / something is annoying me I will try meditating to calm myself down.

I will watch a documentary on nature, the ocean (or anything connected to animals, wildlife, and trees.) And then research how to help our planet

I will replace 30 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.

I will take a 10-minute walk outside each day.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 15 minute(s) each day.

The Community Service Committee and the 2nd grade classes will be hosting Walk for Water on Monday, April 18th, after school (3:30-4:30pm). By participating, students can become more aware of the burden that limited access to water can have on people's lives. According to a UNICEF estimate, for example, in Sub-Saharan Africa households in rural areas must walk on average 33 minutes to collect water; in Asia, 21 minutes.

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

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

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

I will replace 4 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will bring in collected single use plastics for aNY Bag Project to ISB to help re-purpose single use plastics into reusable bags, reduce plastic waste in my community, school and a % of proceeds are contribute to City Parks Foundation to help keep our local parks maintained.
