Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

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

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

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

Cheap, single-use items and disposable packaging end up blowing around as litter more often in poor and POC-majority neighborhoods. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

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