I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will watch 5 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

What can lack of access to nutritious food affect a community? How can having access to nutritious food help a community become more resilient?

I will spend 76 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 find out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in recycling dumpsters or my curbside bin.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

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

I will sign up for a car-sharing service or organize car sharing with my neighbors or classmates to cut down on the number of vehicles on the road.

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

I will take a walk outside for 10 minutes each day.

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