Dillon Foley

I will become a savvy produce shopper when buying organic and non-organic items.

I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste.

I will volunteer 2 hours in my community.

Using the links provided below, I will research impact investing or my current investment portfolio to determine if they align with my values.

During the workday, I will schedule time for daily breaks during work days to practice work-life balance.

I will use the communication methods I read about to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly (i.e., my roommate, parents, co-worker, partner, classmates, or children).

I will replace 20 minute(s) per day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside exercising, enjoying the sunrise/sunset, gardening, journaling, or practicing gratitude for nature.

Each day, I will spend time developing a readiness plan for my household in the event of an emergency.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how lifestyle changes could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will plant pollinator-friendly plants in my area to support local pollinators.

Studies show a grass lawn is water intensive and on average it require about 30 percent of a household’s water consumption. I will do one or more of the following actions in my yard or community to conserve water and improve habitat: plant indigenous plants, landscape with water-efficient plants, add mulching, replace a lawn, and/or use eco-friendly fertilizers.
