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 spend 30 minutes learning more about renewable energy alternatives (i.e. solar, wind, biomass) in my region.

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate. I will keep 2 containers out of the landfill each day.

I will take a 15-minute walk outside each day around my campus, neighborhood, or local green space to connect with nature.

I will use public transit 10 miles each day and avoid sending CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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

Producing 1 kg of beef emits as much greenhouse gas as driving 150 miles, meanwhile, 1 kg of veggies or grains leaves a much lighter footprint! This week, I’ll shrink my climate impact by having 1 meatless meals and/or 1 vegan meals each day.
