OLIVER SAENZ

I will join my neighborhood association or another local group of decision makers.

I will volunteer 1 hour(s) for a nature-based event or another opportunity to support my community.

I will spend 1 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.

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

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

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.

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).

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute or less showers. Tip: Use a timer to practice or count to 60 a few times.

I will replace 30 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.

I will cook 3 meal(s) with zero-waste each day.

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.
