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.

Seeing where waste goes can change how we think about what we throw away. I will visit a local facility to learn more about the waste stream in my community and share what I learn with others and in the feed.

I will avoid sending up to 0.42 lbs (0.19 kg) of food waste to the landfill per day by composting my food.

Reduciré la cantidad de agua que se usa en cada descarga y ahorraré hasta 41 litros (11 galones) de agua por día al instalar un depósito ahorrador para el tanque del baño.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will spend 15 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 keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.
