Sometimes protecting nature requires feeling connected to nature. I will invest 30 minutes in exploring and appreciating a natural area in my region, whether a forest, wetland, coastal area, or somewhere else.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning more about the environmental services provided by and the environmental issues affecting temperate forests.

I will spend at least 5 minutes learning about green gentrification and how it relates to city planning for climate action.

I will reduce the amount of water flushed and save up to 11 gallons (41 L) of water a day or 330 gallons (1,230 L) a month by installing a toilet tank bank.

I will take a walk for 10 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 1 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will spend 5 minutes learning about the climate impact of refrigerants and what climate-friendly refrigerants are by using the links below.

I will spend at least 5 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of micro wind.

I will write or call 1 elected officials telling them not to support fossil fuel subsidies and instead support wind energy generation.
