Ann Ganter

I will volunteer 15 hour(s) in my community helping people who are most at need right now, including elderly and immunocompromised people, people without childcare, and people whose jobs have been affected by social distancing measures.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area while following CDC guidelines for social distancing.

I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

I will plant native species, landscape with water-efficient plants, and use eco-friendly fertilizers.

I will replace 60 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside that follows CDC guidelines for preventing disease spread.

I will buy organic cotton and foods grown without the use of synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

Plastic packaging can clog our water ways and the stomachs of sea creatures. I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus.

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips, and I will only use muscle-powered transportation for all other trips.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option. If my utility does not offer one, I will purchase Renewable Energy Credits to match my usage.

I will spend at least 15 minute(s) a day researching climate issues or climate solutions in my local area and share with others through my team feed, social media, or conversations with my peers.
