I will carry all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

Both systemic and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 3 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 45 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will spend 45 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

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

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

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided when I have to print documents.

I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of plants and trees at my home or work.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 90 minute(s) each day.

I will spend 45 minutes doing an activity where I'm both moving my body and enjoying myself.

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 volunteer 25 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will connect with a local nonprofit, environmental or otherwise, and find out how I can get involved or become a member.

I will keep track and reduce my consumption of refined sugars, including sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).
