I will reduce my shower time to 5 minutes today

Go a full day eliminating single-use plastics and paper products, opting for reusables instead. Pay special attention to packaging!

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

Using Drawdown's Job Function Action Guide, I will learn about climate actions I can take at work.

I will complete a plastics audit to see where plastics show up in my life and determine how I can reduce the use of single-use plastics.

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.

I will avoid buying and using 1 single-use plastics and instead replace them with durable options.

I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin practicing it in my own life.

I will set up or join a recycling program at my workplace or school.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 0.11lbs (0.05kg) a day or 3.3lbs (1.6kg) a month by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions, and opting out of junk mail.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, including electronics and metals.

Get your steps in and reduce your carbon footprint!

I will spend 15 minutes researching and shopping from 1 businesses owned by women, people of color, or immigrants.
