I will keep 5 disposable plastic bottles from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 10 minutes each day to reflect on things important to me.

Recycling rules vary by location. I’ll spend 3 minutes learning which plastics my local or campus recycling program accepts. This helps me avoid “wishcycling” — tossing items in the bin and hoping they’ll be recycled, even if they aren’t.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 per day.

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

I will spend 10 minutes listening to a podcast about food.

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

I will save water in my dorm or shared living space by only flushing the toilet when necessary—potentially conserving up to 12 gallons (45 L) per day.
