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

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

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 start a compost bin where I live.

I will use my spending power to reward companies leading in purchasing green energy and incentivize others to invest more in green energy.

After researching the incentives at the federal, state, utility, and local levels, I will contact a local installer/distributor for a solar panel installation consultation on my house.

I will buy from organic and local farmers who have made the decision to not use synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

I will find out who in my city makes decisions that impact bike routes and express my support for better biking infrastructure.

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

I will support women-owned businesses when I shop this month.

I will connect with a local nonprofit working on womens' or girls' issues in my community, and find out how I can get involved or become a member.

I will set up a visit to tour a green roof in my city, and ask about the codes and process for installing a green roof.
