I will spend at least 90 minutes learning how local indigenous tribes are caring for the land by attending a training, workshop, or presentation.

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 90 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of wave and tidal 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 reduce the amount of water flushed and save up to 11 gallons (41 L) of water per day by installing a toilet tank bank.

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 find out who in my city makes decisions that impact neighborhood walkability and express my support for better walking infrastructure.

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

I will find out how to make my home more energy efficient through better insulation and weatherization.
