I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 10 minutes each day to reflect on things important to me.

I will plant 2 trees in my community, public parks, or backyard.

I will volunteer 1 hours in my community during the challenge.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 3.4lbs (1.5kg) a month or 41lbs (18.6kg) a year by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

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

I will naturally heat and cool my house, office, or dorm room by opening or closing my windows, curtains, and blinds, and by using fans.

I will replace inefficient heating and cooling units with energy saving units.

I will take a walk each day.
