COMPLETED
ONE-TIME ACTION

People

Create Homemade Face Covering to Help Prevent the Spread of Coronavirus

The CDC now recommends wearing a cloth face covering (such as a homemade mask or scarf) when you’re in public places where it’s difficult to maintain social distancing. These are places where there are usually more people — for example, at pharmacies and grocery stores. Now's your time to get creative while also doing social good and supporting public health. Breathable fabric like cotton, silk, or linen is recommended. Repurpose an old T-shirt, bandana, pillowcase, handkerchief, or scarf. You can sew the fabric into a mask, tie it around your face, or fold it and use hair ties for ear loops. Share your final product on your favorite social channels to inspire friends and family to do the same.

COMPLETED
ONE-TIME ACTION

Food

Pantry Scavenger Hunt

If necessity is the mother of invention, but you're at a loss for what to make for lunch or dinner, fall back on three core Intuit values: Be Bold, Be Passionate, and Deliver Awesome. Gather up ingredients you already have on hand, and get creative! If possible, try focusing on a dish composed of vegetable or grain-forward ingredients.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Climate Choose Renewable Energy or Purchase Renewable Energy Credits
    Your utility company is able to tell you your average energy usage. Ask them how your energy usage compares to others in your ZIP code, region, and/or state. What other steps can you take each day to reduce your electricity usage?

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Action Track: Building Resilience Support Pollinators
    Why is it important to take care of pollinators?

    Bobby Javanshir 4/29/2020 9:27 AM
    Pollinators support the broader ecosystem, without pollinators, plants do not pollenate and produce, animals don't eat what's produced and spread the seeds to other areas, and the ecosystem suffers!
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Reduce Animal Products
    Why do people in richer countries eat more meat than people in other places? How does eating more meat affect our planet and other people?
