Many common products contain harmful chemicals. I will spend 30 minutes researching chemicals found in products I use, and I will make a list of products I'd like to replace with safer options.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about food apartheid and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

I will spend 60 minutes learning about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

I will limit my social media use to once per day and share the impact I see and reflections I have on the feed.

Environmental issues often impact marginalized communities the most. I will spend 60 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, who is affected by them, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will research tool libraries and other sharing economy organizations in my area and rent or borrow instead of buy next time I need something they offer.

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.

I will spend 20 minutes each day maintaining a record of all my purchases and learning about my spending habits.
