Stories connect and inspire us. I will share 5 resilience stories—either from my life, my community, or from a leader or culture I admire—through conversations, social media, or the event feed to help others see resilience in action.

Sharing our talents can benefit those around us. I will offer my skills or services that contribute to local self-sufficiency, such as teaching a repair skill or helping with a neighbor's garden.

Being prepared can save lives during emergency situations. I will tour my Donaldson facility to identify where the AED/Emergency Kits are located.

Anxiety can be overwhelming, but resources and strategies can help. I will spend 4 minutes exploring resources that help manage anxiety and stress to support my mental and psychological well being.

Eating a wide variety of colorful fruits and vegetables is a simple way to boost our personal health and support a more resilient food system. I will prepare and enjoy 3 servings of fruits and vegetables each day.

Daily movement supports our physical and mental health. I will spend 60 minutes each day exercising in a way that feels good to me, such as walking, running, stretching, or dancing.

Biodiversity hotspots are places with many unique species that are also at risk. I will spend 5 minutes learning about one hotspot and reflect on why protecting it matters for resilience.

Trees are vital for resilience, storing carbon, sheltering biodiversity, and protecting water and soil. I will plant 5 trees in my yard, community, or through a local project to help ecosystems adapt and thrive.

Reducing energy use is the foundation of Donaldson’s decarbonization strategy. I will watch the video on this link to learn about energy efficiency opportunities and examples across our sites and submit a reflection through the reflection form in the Sharepoint link
