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

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

Adding fruits and vegetables to our meals nourishes our body and the planet. I will prepare and enjoy 2 servings of a variety of colorful fruits and veggies.

Cutting back on refined sugar can improve energy, mood, and overall health. I will limit my intake of sugary snacks and drinks by reducing refined sugar in meals or snacks each day.

I will spend 15 minutes doing an activity where I'm both moving my body and enjoying myself.

Instead of traveling for meetings or events, I will conduct them virtually when possible—whether for classes, student organizations, or internships—to reduce my carbon footprint.

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