Harmonie O'Loughlin

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

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 start a compost bin where I live.

I will save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.

I will buy from organic and local farmers who have made the decision to not use synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

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 upgrade the windows or weatherstripping in my home or office to reduce air leaks and save on energy costs.

I will replace 6 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

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

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

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