Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will keep 3 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will walk 5 mile(s) each day instead of driving and avoid sending up to (___) lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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

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

I will travel by bike 5 mile(s) each day and avoid sending up to (___) lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will watch 2 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 30 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 60 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard or local community garden.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

Live in the spirit of Do It In The Dark: turn off the lights, air dry your clothes, or take a shorter shower!
