I will watch 2 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.

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 connect with at least 2 person/people a day through phone call or video chat to support mine and other’s mental and emotional health during this challenging time.

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

In Philadelphia, artists have banded together to create beautiful posters with messages of hope and solidarity. The People’s Paper Project of Philadelphia is working with local building and business owners to print and exhibit the posters on walls and closed storefronts. Let’s do the same in NYC!

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

I will reduce food waste and save money by prepping for 2 meal(s) each day, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will spend at least 10 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.
