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

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

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

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 fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 9 gallons (34 L) of water per faucet every day.

I will not travel for meetings and will instead conduct them virtually.

I will test drive an electric bike at a local distributor to see if it makes sense to use one in place of my car, or to extend the area I can cover by bike.

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