I will spend at least 3 minutes researching how biodiversity positively impacts our world and how the loss of biodiversity harms it.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators, including monarch butterflies, to produce fruit. I will spend 3 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

Bringing home unique souvenirs from trips you’ve enjoyed is meaningful, and giving people unique gifts from other places is fun. Seek souvenirs and gifts that support local communities and do not cause harm to the environment or wildlife.

I will plant 3 native tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.

I will replace or remove the palm oil, coffee, and cocoa products in my current diet that are known to contribute to deforestation.

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 respect and protect biotic communities by practicing the seven principles of Leave No Trace when doing nature activities alone or with family and friends.

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

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

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

I will spend at least 3 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

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

I will spend at least 20 minutes learning about how our oceans support life on Earth by producing oxygen, regulating climate, and providing habitat, food, and jobs.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When marine wildlife ingest plastic, they have a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will spend at least 30 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.
