I will watch 1 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 calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste.

I will volunteer 2 hour(s) for a nature-based event or another opportunity to support my community.

I will spend 45 minutes learning about voter access and equity. And if applicable, I will register to vote, ask someone I trust to help me register, or help others register.

Whether by donating or volunteering, I will research the benefits of low-income solar and find out how I can support initiatives in my area.

I will shop at a small business owned or staffed by underrepresented members of my community.

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. digital/virtual attendance, vacation without air travel).

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 30 minutes finding out how to recycle in my region, where landfills and/or waste sites are situated in my region, and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

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

Each day, I will practice a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will spend 45 minutes learning about sustainable fashion and adopt at least one sustainable fashion practice.

I will maintain a record of all my purchases and identify my spending habits.

I will repair at least one item that is broken, but is repairable. This might be items like garden tools, sewing machine, small appliances, electronics, clothing, and more.

I will spend 20 minutes learning about my food supply chains, and complete a food waste audit.

I will enjoy 3 meatless meal(s) and/or 2 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about palm oil, coffee, cocoa, and other products known to contribute to deforestation, and replace or remove them.

I will find out what food programs are in my area and donate food and/or other items that they request.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 30 minutes researching which plants support local pollinators and plant a few in my area.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, work, or other shared space to identify the next steps for saving energy.
