If I have to buy paper products, I will only purchase products made from post-consumer recycled paper for my home or office.

I will fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 9 gallons (34 L) of water per faucet every day.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will cook 2 meal(s) with zero-waste each day.

I will source 1 meal(s) from local producers each day. This could include signing up for a local CSA, buying from a farmer's market, visiting a food co-op, foraging with a local group, or growing my own ingredients.

I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.

I will find out how to make my home more energy efficient through better insulation and weatherization.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and subscriptions.

I will avoid buying toxic plastics, including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl and instead replace them with bioplastic or durable options.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of trees and plants in my yard.
