Generate appreciate for the ecosystems that I live near

During the work day, I will schedule time for breaks to practice work-life balance.

I will spend 5 minutes listening to a podcast about equity and justice.

I will spend 20 minutes learning about the experiences of trans, femme, and/or nonbinary people.

I will reduce food waste, excess carbon and save money by planning my daily and weekly menus so that I only purchase the ingredients needed.

Each day, I will collect, track, or take a picture of all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to know how much I send to the landfill.

I will spend 20 learning about the past and present indigenous or first nation communities in my regions impacted by colonization, and what I can do to be supportive.

I will watch 1 documentaries about racism and racial injustice.

I will contact 2 congress people or representatives to advocate for public policy that protects forests, improves their ability to sequester carbon, and supports biodiversity.

Each day, I will find one or more items I can donate to a local thrift or resale shop.
