I will save up to 4 gallons (15 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

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.

Small acts of kindness and gratitude can brighten someone's day and create a positive ripple effect. I will express gratitude to people or perform random acts of kindness to spread joy and connection.

I will calculate my digital carbon footprint and take steps to reduce my CO2 emissions.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 5 minutes each day to reflect on things important to me.

I will spend 5 minutes each day maintaining a record of all my purchases and learning about my spending habits.

Each of us has a water footprint, directly linked to our daily activities as well as the water required in the production of things we use each day. Understanding our water use is important for a healthy planet. I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste, then share what I learned on the feed.
