Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 45 minutes each day.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will spend 30 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cups to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will spend at least 60 minutes touring (virtually or in person) a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about our local waste and waste recovery streams.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straws out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 3 conversations.
