I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 60 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard or local community garden.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 10 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

I will make sure I’m registered to vote. While I’m at it, I’ll sign up to help others register too!

We may find more meaning and joy in life when our actions are aligned with our personal values. I will determine what my top 3-5 core values are so that I can better align my actions with them.

I will replace 60 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.

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

I will spend 30 minutes doing an activity where I'm both moving my body and enjoying myself.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

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

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 0 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

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

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

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.
