Jennifer Hall

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

I will replace 6 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will replace 30 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside that follows CDC guidelines for preventing disease spread.

Through social media or on the Earth Day Ecochallenge feed, I will share my favorite environmentally friendly habit with my friends, even if it’s not an Earth Day action.

I will express my love and gratitude for our Earth by writing a love letter, poem, or song to Earth.

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

I will scrape, rather than rinse, dishes before loading into the dishwasher and only run the dishwasher when it’s full.

Avoid beauty products with micro beads or harsh chemicals that will feed into the ground and your water supply.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

Complete your personal carbon footprint calculator. Go to www.wsppact.com and answer the questions for each section. The process takes about 10 minutes. Details about your utility bills and travel will be required. Please be as accurate as you can, but it’s not required to search for receipts.
