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

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

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

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators, including monarch butterflies, to produce fruit. I will spend 20 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

I will pick up 5 piece(s) of litter each day while following the CDC’s current guidelines for prevention of disease transfer.

I will connect with at least 1 person/people a day through phone call or video chat to support mine and other’s mental and emotional health during this challenging time.

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.
