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

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

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of geothermal energy and consider investing in this technology.

I will improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or some other small improvement.

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 spend at least 15 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of wave and tidal energy.

I will spend at least 20 minutes finding out if my city, region, or state offers incentives for retrofitting existing buildings.

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

I will commute by bike 5 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 3.96 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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

I will set up a visit to tour a green roof in my city, and ask about the codes and process for installing a green roof.
