I will write to a school, community learning center, or education leader I admire to express my thanks for their sustainability work and find out how I can get involved.

For an upcoming vacation, I will plan a staycation in my region.

I will replace 15 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.

I will spend 5 minutes learning about how and where to dispose of medications and chemicals properly.

Throughout the day I will track my purchases and then research the companies making these goods.

I will spend 10 minutes learning about the climate and natural disaster risks in my area.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will spend 60 minutes learning about invasive species and ways to reduce their impacts.

Throughout the day, I will note the single-use plastics I use and consider the reusable options available to me.

Each day, I will spend 10 minutes exploring a new area around my neighborhood (e.g., park, water body, nearby trail, community garden, green space, etc.).
