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.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce our carbon footprint and our impact on the environment.

Each day, I will find one or more items I can donate to a local thrift or resale shop.

I will donate blood in my community to make sure there are adequate supplies for routine medical services and emergencies.

I will spend 5 minute(s) per day finding out what sustainability and nature-related legislation is on local and state ballots this year.

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

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 15 minutes researching which plants support local pollinators and plant a few in my area.

I will replace 45 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 find out what food programs are in my area and donate food and/or other items that they request.

I will enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 2 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

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

I will spend 15 minutes listening to a podcast about equity and justice.
