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

I will participate in at least (___) daily live events during the virtual St. Louis Earth Day Festival, which spans from April 18-26, 2020.

I will register for a FREE ticket to attend the virtual St. Louis Earth Day Festival which spans from April 18-26, 2020, in order to gain access to daily live content and links that highlight the amazing work in our community that are paving way for a more sustainable future.

I will watch 1 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 save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

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.

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 only purchase wood and paper products from ecologically certified sources like Forest Stewardship Council.

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