I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

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

I will reduce the amount of unwanted mail I receive (catalogs, phone books, etc.).

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 per day that I do this.

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

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

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and subscriptions.

I will exercise daily for 20 minute(s) per day for two weeks.

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

I will research toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.
