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

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home or dorm room.

I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

I will watch 2 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.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 0.11lbs (0.05kg) a day or 3.3lbs (1.6kg) a month by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

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

I will practice the seven principles of Leave No Trace when doing nature activities alone or with family and friends.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.
