Meditation helps build resilience and clarity. I will spend 30 minutes each day to meditate or create a moment of silence each day to reflect on things important to me.

Dishwashers can save water — if used wisely. I will only run the dishwasher when it’s full and skip the pre-rinse to reduce water and energy use. If I don't have a dishwasher, I will turn off the tap as often as possible while washing dishes.

Conserving water helps protect this precious resource. I will shorten my showers to 5 minutes to save water and reduce energy use - each time saving up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water!

Communities can adapt to challenges and grow stronger together. I will spend 30 minutes learning about how communities prepare for and respond to change, and how collective action builds resilience.

Sharing builds common understanding. I will share 10 definitions of resilience that resonate with me—through conversations, social media, or the event feed—to help others explore what resilience means.
