I will offer to help 1 person(s) who are in need this week.

I will pick up litter on my street and ask others to join me in taking care of our neighborhood.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will meet 1 new neighbor(s) this week.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 2 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 volunteer 2 hour(s) in my community this week.

I will tell 3 people why sustainability is important to me and what my vision for a sustainable world is.

I will learn about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day this week.

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

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

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

I will sign petitions in support of an environmental or social initiative in my state.
