I will plant native species, landscape with water-efficient plants, and use eco-friendly fertilizers.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided when I have to print documents.

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

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

I will calculate my Water Footprint to learn about my tap water use and "virtual water" use.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

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

Flying emits a lot of CO2 into the atmosphere which affects air quality and the health of our planet, animals, and people. If buying a plane ticket, I will also buy a carbon offset.

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

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.

I will keep 3 disposable plastic bottles from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
