I will use public transit 3 miles each day and avoid sending CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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

Knowing our carbon footprint is the first step to reducing it. I will calculate my carbon impact and identify lifestyle changes that could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment. I will share my commitments to lowering my impact on the feed.

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

I will keep 3 disposable plastic bottles from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

Adding fruits and vegetables to our meals nourishes our body and the planet. I will prepare and enjoy 2 servings of a variety of colorful fruits and veggies.

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.

I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

I will try to shop at a farmers market or food co-op, if one is accessible, to support local farmers and businesses. By doing so, I may be able to learn more about who produces the food I eat and goods I buy.

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.

I will spend 10 minutes learning about the perils of fast fashion and will choose thrift stores, clothing swaps, or second-hand options when I shop for clothes.

I will only check my email during school or study hours, using my personal time for activities that support my well-being and align with my values.

I will enjoy the sunrise and/or sunset each day.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will use the resource links provided and spend 52 minutes learning about the native populations that lived in my area prior to colonization, and what I can do to support those that still exist.
