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

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

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.

If possible, I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When marine wildlife ingest plastic, they have a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
