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 spend at least 30 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will reduce food waste and save money by prepping for 1 meal(s) each day, only buying the ingredients I need.

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

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.

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching how biodiversity positively impacts our world and how the loss of biodiversity harms it.

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning about a wild animal I find interesting, including their life cycle, habitat, ecosystem functions, and interactions with humans (if any!).

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

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.
