I will cook 1 meal(s) with zero-waste each day.

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.

I will write or call 2 elected official(s) telling them not to support fossil fuel subsidies and instead support wind energy generation.

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 spend at least 30 minutes learning more about the need for family planning globally.

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching the impact of my diet to see how it contributes to deforestation.

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

I will commute by carpool 9 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 5.44 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching how to properly dispose of bioplastics in my city and share this information with 5 friends, family and/or colleagues.

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

I will donate to Cool Effect's cookstove projects or another nonprofit that installs clean cookstoves in low-income countries.

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

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

I will donate one or more Femme Kits to help girls overcome health and sanitation barriers to being able to attend school.

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