I will spend at least 300 minutes researching how to properly dispose of bioplastics in my city and share this information with 10 friends, family and/or colleagues.

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 spend at least 60 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

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 start a compost bin where I live.

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

I will enjoy 1 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

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