Maria Carranza

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will plant pollinator-friendly plants in my area to support local pollinators.

To reduce CO2 emissions each day, I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.

Each day, I will spend 3 minutes exploring a new area around my neighborhood (e.g., park, water body, nearby trail, community garden, green space, etc.).

I will make a few homemade cleaning products.

During the workday, I will schedule time for daily breaks during work days to practice work-life balance.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how lifestyle changes could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment.

I will make 1 phone calls and/or send 1 emails to public officials to advocate for water habitat protection and clean up in my region.

I will spend 5 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.

Each day, I will track my purchases to identify my spending habits. This will allow me to see what purchases can be reduced.
