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

I will only purchase wood and paper products from ecologically certified sources like Forest Stewardship Council.

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

I will spend at least 60 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

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

I will enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will spend at least 180 minutes learning about the need for more regenerative agriculture.

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.

If I have to buy paper products, I will only purchase products made from post-consumer recycled paper for my home or office.

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