Alexxi Porter 901

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those around the world who produce my food in order to make better choices when I shop.

I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 15 minute(s) each day.

I will spend 5 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 133 lbs of CO2 a month and 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

I will spend 45 minutes learning about the experiences of trans, femme, and/or nonbinary people.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 1 conversations.

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

I will advocate for local and/or organic food options at work or on campus.

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

I will visit a nearby farm to pick my own fruits and veggies.

I will avoid wasting water while waiting for the shower or sink to heat up.

I will spend 5 minutes learning more about renewable energy alternatives (i.e. solar, wind, biomass) in my region.

I will improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or some other small improvement.
