I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will write down three things every day for two weeks that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will tend to a garden each day, or work on starting one.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will journal each day about my experiences in nature.

I will involve my children in completing the actions I have selected during the challenge.

I will carry all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will join an outdoor restoration project in my community.

I will sign up for a local CSA (Consumer-supported Agriculture).

I will find out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

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

I will meet 1 new neighbor(s) per day.

I will disable screen savers and will put the computer to sleep instead, saving up to 28% more energy.

I will connect with a local nonprofit, environmental or otherwise, and find out how I can get involved or become a member.

I will upgrade the windows or weatherstripping in my home or office to reduce air leaks and save on energy costs.

I will watch a documentary film about food with family and friends and talk about what we learned.
