I will make sure I'm registered to vote. While I'm at it, I’ll sign up to help others register too!

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

I will naturally heat and cool my house, office, or dorm room by opening or closing my windows, curtains, and blinds, and by using fans.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

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.

Adding fruits and vegetables to our meals nourishes our body and the planet. I will prepare and enjoy 10 servings of a variety of colorful fruits and veggies.

Strong neighborhoods are built on connection and trust. I will introduce myself to 2 neighbors or spend time getting to know people in my community.

I will share food with the people around me.

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 take a walk each day to clear my mind, get some fresh air, and support my physical and mental health as a student.

Tell us what you thought! Take a short survey about your experience to help us improve future events. It only takes a few minutes — and when you complete the survey, you'll earn points!

I will spend 5 minutes learning about the experiences of trans, femme, and/or nonbinary people.

Racial inequity is both a sustainability and justice problem. I will support businesses owned by people of color in my community whenever I shop.

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