My goal is to not waste food for a whole month.

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

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

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

I will spend 1 minutes learning about impact investing and/or my current investment portfolio to determine if they align with my values.

I will spend 1 minutes learning about sustainable fashion and adopt at least one sustainable fashion practice.

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.

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 spend 1 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 spend 1 minutes learning about the experiences of trans, femme, and/or nonbinary people.

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

I will watch 1 documentaries about racism and racial injustice.

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 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.

Each day, I will spend 10 minutes exploring a new area around my neighborhood, which might include a park, water body, trail, etc.

I will replace 60 minute(s) per day typically spent inside and often with electronics with quality time outside walking, exercising, enjoying the sunrise/sunset, gardening, journaling, observing nature, or practicing gratitude for nature.

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

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill per day by composting my food.

I will cook 2 meal(s) with zero-waste each day.

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.
