Ashley E

I will express my love and gratitude for our Earth by writing a love letter, poem, or song to Earth.

I will replace 40 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 spend at least 15 minutes learning about how our oceans support life on Earth by producing oxygen, regulating climate, and providing habitat, food, and jobs.

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

If possible, I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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

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.

I will spend at least 15 minutes researching how biodiversity positively impacts our world and how the loss of biodiversity harms it.
