Emily Petersen

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my family, for 30 minute(s) each day. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)

I will disconnect from my email when not working or studying.

I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.

I will join an outdoor restoration project in my community.

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

I will not use any disposable plates, cups, or utensils.

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

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.

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

I will maintain a record of all my purchases.

I will exercise daily for 30 minute(s) per day for two weeks.

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

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug.
