I will use seaweed in a new recipe.

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

I will replace 3 incandescent lightbulbs with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will spend 2 minutes researching the environmental benefits of peatlands and what is being done around the world to conserve and restore them.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce our carbon footprint and our impact on the environment.

Each day, I will spend at least 2 minutes learning more about protecting and restoring macroalgae/seaweed.

I will spend at least 5 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of geothermal energy and consider investing in this technology.

I will support a community garden by volunteering, donating, or advocating for a new or existing one.

Each day, I will spend at least 2 minutes learning more about how bottom-trawling impacts on the seafloor.
