When they are available, I will purchase products made from bamboo instead of wood, plastic, or metal.

I will spend at least 15 minutes researching the impact of my diet to see how it contributes to deforestation.

I will replace or remove products in my current diet that are known to contribute to deforestation.

I will volunteer 2 hours with a wetland restoration project in my region.

I will spend at least 120 minutes finding out if anyone is working on perennial biomass projects in my region and how I can get involved.

I will donate to The Nature Conservancy, which works with Indigenous Peoples to secure land tenure and resource rights, support improved governance and local institutions, assist in natural resource mapping, planning and management; and strengthen livelihoods and sustainable economic development.

I will spend at least 60 minutes learning how local indigenous tribes are caring for the land by attending a training, workshop, or presentation.
