Water is one of the most visible ways climate change impacts our lives. I will spend 60 minutes learning how climate change affects water in my region and explore actions that can help people and ecosystems adapt.

The foods we eat carry hidden “water footprints” that affect rivers, soils, and communities worldwide. I will reduce servings of high-water-use foods and choose alternatives that help conserve water and support more resilient food systems.

Producing 1 kg of beef emits as much greenhouse gas as driving 150 miles, meanwhile, 1 kg of veggies or grains leaves a much lighter footprint! This week, I’ll shrink my climate impact by having 1 meatless meals meals each day.

Resilience in water systems means being able to adapt, recover, and thrive through change. I will spend 60 minutes learning how people and communities build water resilience and reflect on how I can apply this knowledge.
