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

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during the EcoChallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.

I will use public transit 20 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to -0.74 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will commute by carpool 10 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 0.02 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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

I will assess the vehicles used by my company or college and advocate for a purchasing policy focused on electric and fuel-efficient vehicles.

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

I will spend at least 25 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will watch a video about methane digesters (also commonly known as anaerobic digesters).

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