Kieran Miller

I will enjoy 1 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 3 meal(s) each day, only buying the ingredients I need.

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.

I will strive to create meals using only what I have in my fridge/freezer/pantry to minimize the amount of food that goes to waste.

I will write 1 letter(s) or email(s) per day to a public official or company to advocate for planet-friendly and/or environmentally just policies.

To reduce my consumption and waste and support my community, I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors.

The next time you or a guardian goes out to buy groceries, check on your elderly neighbors who may not be as physically capable and see if they are in need of food and other supplies.

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

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 replace 2 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning about how our oceans support life on Earth by producing oxygen, regulating climate, and providing habitat, food, and jobs.

I will replace or remove the palm oil, coffee, and cocoa products in my current diet that are known to contribute to deforestation.

Earth Day challenge.
