I will replace 10 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will create a plan to and advocate for solar installation at my business, apartment building, or campus.

I will use public transit 12 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 9.34 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will upgrade the windows or weatherstripping in my home or office to reduce air leaks and save on energy costs.

I will replace manual thermostats with smart ones.

I will contact a local installer/distributor to see if a solar water heater makes sense for my house.

I will spend at least 120 minutes researching and weighing my options to see if a hybrid or electric vehicle makes sense for my lifestyle.

I will give 1 microloan(s) to women who need help starting a business.

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching heat pumps to see if installing one makes sense for my home/building.

I will not travel for meetings and will instead conduct them virtually.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option. If my utility does not offer one, I will purchase Renewable Energy Credits to match my usage.
