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.

I will plant native species, landscape with water-efficient plants, and use eco-friendly fertilizers.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 3 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

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

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

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

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

I will replace 3 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option. If my utility does not offer one, I will purchase Renewable Energy Credits to match my usage.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will learn 1 new recipe using only local food.

There are many ways we can help our community during this tough time. Just choose one! Create homemade masks to donate to healthcare or other essential workers. Donate to local food shelves. Donate to local foundations providing aid in your community.

I will volunteer 20 hour(s) in my community helping people who are most at need right now, including elderly and immunocompromised people, people without childcare, and people whose jobs have been affected by social distancing measures.
