Cheryl's actions
Water
Eco-Friendly Gardening
I will plant native species, landscape with water-efficient plants, and use eco-friendly fertilizers.
Simplicity
Eat Mindfully
I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.
Simplicity
De-Clutter My Home
I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.
Health
Audit Toxic Cleaning Products in my Home
I will spend 10 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.
Health
Healthy Sleep
Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.
Health
Exercise Daily
Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 10 minutes each day.
Waste
Snack Time!
Action is to recycle candy and snack wrappers at collection bins in kitchens on 1, 2, and 3rd floors. I am choosing this action to bring awareness to unnecessary waste and challenge staff to do this daily as this call to action incorporates us to do the walk on the BRI Facilities Sustainability Road Map and have some daily exercise in the work place as well!
