I will tell 2 people why sustainability is important to me and what my vision for a sustainable world is.

This week, I will spend 5 minute(s) each day outside, practicing gratitude (prayer, meditation, journaling, etc.) for Earth and the nature surrounding me.

I will walk 3 mile(s) each day this week instead of driving and avoid sending up to 25.32 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will sign up for a car-sharing service, or organize car sharing with my neighbors, to cut down on the number of vehicles on the road.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 4 disposable plastic bottle(s) each day this week.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. This week, I'll say "no" to plastic bags at the store and plastic straws in all of my drinks.

I will calculate my ecological footprint and talk with my family or roommates about way we can reduce our negative enviromental impact.

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

I will find out if my local utilities offer an option for supporting renewable energy investment.

I will contact local officials and city leaders this week to challenge them to support sustainability policies.

I will find out what local sustainability issues are most urgent in my region, including both social and environmental justice concerns.

I will source 1 meal(s) from local producers each day this week.

I will start a 'Take Back the Tap' campaign on my campus.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will watch a movie about a sustainability issue I would like to know more about.

I will enjoy 2 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day this week.
