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

Complete your personal carbon footprint calculator. Go to www.wsppact.com and answer the questions for each section. The process takes about 10 minutes. Details about your utility bills and travel will be required. Please be as accurate as you can, but it’s not required to search for receipts.

I challenge you to go veg for a week. Sign up and I will provide you with daily updates during the week of the challenge (April 20th to 25th - send me an email that you want to join at julie.sinistore@wsp.com) We will have a webinar on Wednesday, April 22nd (Earth Day) at 9am Pacific/noon Eastern about the environmental impacts of food. Join the webinar and/or take the pledge :)

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips, and I will only use muscle-powered transportation for all other trips.

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 spend at least 15 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators, including monarch butterflies, to produce fruit. I will spend 30 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.
