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 scrape, rather than rinse, dishes before loading into the dishwasher and only run the dishwasher when it’s full.

I will buy organic cotton and foods grown without the use of synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

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

I will replace 15 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 save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

I will replace 6 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.
