Michele Hunt

I will create a rain garden or bioswale, or use rain barrels to collect water for outdoor watering needs.

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

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

I will source 1 meal(s) per day from local producers.

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

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

I will not eat seafood.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

I will take a 30-minute walk outside each day.

I will replace my lawn with a drought-tolerant landscape and save the water, money, and time I used to spend cutting the grass.

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

I will install alternative energy systems, such as solar electric systems or solar water heaters.
