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 spend at least 2 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

Each day, I will spend at least 5 minutes learning about sustainable aquaculture.

I will avoid buying and using 3 single-use plastics and instead replace them with durable options.

I will practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.

I will contact the fossil fuel companies that supply energy in my community and ask how they manage and reduce methane leakage.

I will research and tell 1 people each day about the benefits of alternative energy sources like wind turbines, solar energy, geothermal energy, and methane digesters.

I will replace 4 incandescent lightbulbs with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.
