I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 30 minute(s) each day. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)

I will replace 30 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 180 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard or local community garden.

I will take a 30-minute walk outside each day.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home or dorm room.

I will take a walk outside for 30 minutes each day.

I will not work more than 8 hour days each day to practice work-life balance.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.
