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

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

I will enjoy 3 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will source 2 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 prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of trees and plants in my yard.

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

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips, and I will only use muscle-powered transportation for all other trips.

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

I will spend at least 60 minutes finding out if my city, region, or state offers incentives for retrofitting existing buildings.
