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

To reduce my consumption and waste and support my community, I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors.

I will connect with at least 3 person/people a day through phone call or video chat to support mine and other’s mental and emotional health during this challenging time.

I will watch 3 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

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

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).

Plastic bags can be mistaken for food by many wild animals. If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases, including produce bags.

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.
