Elijah Balthazor

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will replace 180 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 3 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will practice the seven principles of Leave No Trace when doing nature activities alone or with family and friends.

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