Beauty and Personal Products
Beauty and personal products can create a lot of waste. I will spend 15 minutes learning about the beauty and body products I use to see if they are refillable or recyclable. If not, I will reach out to the manufacturer to advocate for those options.
Freshwater + Oceans
Drink Detox or Green Tea
Instead of normal cofee drink Detox or Green Tea

Public transportation reduces pollution, improves community, and creates safe streets. I will use public transit 11 miles per day and avoid sending up to (___) lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.
Biodiversity + Wildlife
Plastic in Clothing and Water
Synthetic clothing can contain plastic and shed harmful microplastics into our water. I will use a microplastics catcher in my laundry, or install a microplastics filter for my washing machine.
Biodiversity + Wildlife
Endangered Species
Wildlife and biodiversity play an important role on our planet and are being threatened each year. I will spend 10 minutes each day learning about the current status of local or global wildlife and how I can align my actions to support their livelihood.
Land + Forests
Choose Eco-Friendly Wood and Paper
Trees provide food and habitat for local wildlife species, shade our streets and homes, and help keep our air and water clean by capturing pollutants. Buying products that help protect forests makes a difference. I will only purchase wood, furniture, and paper products from ecologically certified sources such as Forest Stewardship Council.
Land + Forests
Personal Waste Audit
The waste we create daily can go unnoticed. I will track the waste I create in a day and post a photo log on the feed to see how much I create and where I can make different choices to reduce my waste going forward.
Freshwater + Oceans
Raise Awareness for the Conservation of Freshwater and Oceans
I will spend 10 minutes learning more about the importance of freshwater + ocean conservation, and how I can reduce my water use. I will share what I learn with people in person, on social media, and on the feed.
Freshwater + Oceans
Low Water Gardening
Grass lawns are water-intensive and on average require about 30 percent of a household’s water consumption. Native plants are water-efficient and help maintain the balance and diversity of local ecosystems. I will plant native species with water-efficient plants to conserve water and improve the habitat, then post a photo on the feed to share.
Freshwater + Oceans
Reduce Pollutants in Cleaning
Understanding cleaning product ingredients and their effect on water and biodiversity is helpful to our consumer choices. I will spend 20 minutes learning about how cleaning products affect our water and try making my own cleaning products to reduce pollutants.
Freshwater + Oceans
Understand My Water Footprint
Each of us has a water footprint, directly linked to our daily activities as well as the water required in the production of things we use each day. Understanding our water use is important for a healthy planet. I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste, then share what I learned on the feed.
Freshwater + Oceans
Use a Reusable Water Bottle
Itr's estimated over a billion water bottles are thrown away each year. Even if they were recycled, that still uses energy and resources from the earth. I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.
Freshwater + Oceans
Say No to Plastic Straws
An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When marine wildlife ingest plastic, they have a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
Land + Forests
Plant Trees
Trees capture carbon and produce oxygen that is essential to life on earth. I will support this important piece of nature by organizing or joining a community group to plant 10 native trees in my community, public parks, office location, campus or backyard.
Participant Feed
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?

PRATEEK SINGHVI 4/25/2024 11:10 PM7 ways to take care of your nature and enviornment.
Plant More TreesTrees are the most important source of oxygen, as they absorb carbon dioxide and supply us with clean, fresh air to breathe. They help to reduce ozone levels in the atmosphere, minimize noise pollution, and produce a variety of fruits and flowers with a variety of health advantages. Indoor plants can also help to minimize air pollutants like benzene and nitrogen dioxide while also lowering the temperature in your house.Save ElectricityWhen you leave a room or aren’t using something, turn off the light, fan, or air conditioner. During the day, try to make better use of sunshine and avoid utilizing artificial lights. When you are not using an electronic appliance, unplug it. It not only helps the environment, but it also saves you money on power!!Save WaterBecause water is a limited natural resource with a finite supply, it is vital to conserve it in order to protect our ecosystem and mitigate the effects of drought. Shower for a few minutes. When you’re washing dishes, don’t leave the tap running. When flushing, don’t use too much water. Fresh and clean water takes a lot of resources to get to your house, so please don’t waste it and use it carefully.Go Paperless or Use Less PaperWe all print paperwork, tickets, and flyers, whether in the office or at home. Half-used notepads are frequently discarded. Every year, several trees are felled to make paper. So, by conserving paper, you may help the environment greatly. Only print if absolutely necessary. Subscriptions to magazines should not be purchased. For instant usage, take notes on your phone rather than on paper.Save Fuel
When you walk or ride your bike to work, school, or other locations, you will save money on gas and burn calories, both of which are good for your health. You might also use public transportation or carpool. When stopped in traffic or at a red light, come to a complete stop. You could also buy a fuel-efficient vehicle. These actions will conserve gasoline and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the environment.Make use of Tote BagsWhen you go grocery shopping, avoid using plastic or paper bags, because plastic pollutes the environment and takes about 450 years to degrade. Make it a habit to always bring an environmentally friendly tote bag with you when you go shopping. Tote bags are made from a natural fibre that lasts longer and degrades on its own without contributing to pollution in the environment when left unused.CompostWhen you decompose leftovers, methane and other greenhouse gases are produced, which absorb the sun’s heat and contribute to global warming. Decompose your food and other organic waste as much as possible. The compost acts as a natural fertilizer, enriching the soil and promoting the growth of nutritious fruits and vegetables. -
PRATEEK SINGHVI 4/25/2024 11:01 PMAs the scorching summer approaches, here are some essential tips to help you beat the heat and stay healthy:-
Add Summer Foods to Your Diet:
- Incorporate refreshing summer foods into your meals. Opt for green vegetables like bottle gourd, ladyfinger, cucumbers, pumpkin, and a variety of fruits such as watermelon, melons, mangoes, and berries. These foods are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, essential nutrients, and water, which can help combat the intense heat and keep you refreshed1.
-
Stay Hydrated:
- Drink plenty of fluids, especially water. Dehydration is a common issue during summer, so ensure you stay well-hydrated throughout the day. Consider sipping on lemonade or other salt-mixed beverages to replenish lost electrolytes2.
-
Watch for Signs of Heat Illness:
- Be aware of symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, excessive sweating, and muscle cramps. If you experience any of these signs, take immediate measures to cool down and hydrate.
-
Avoid the Midday Sun:
- The sun’s intensity is highest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit outdoor activities during these hours. If you must be outside, seek shade and wear protective clothing.
-
Dress for the Weather:
- Opt for lightweight, loose-fitting, and breathable clothing. Light-colored fabrics can help reflect sunlight and keep you cooler.
-
Pace Your Activities:
- Engage in physical activities during the cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late evening. Avoid strenuous exercise during peak heat hours.
