I spend 15 minutes analyzing my recent utility bills, which might include electricity, gas, or water to see what my current usage is and determine if I can reduce my energy and water use.

Schedule a Community/neighborhood Yard Sale to sell, trade and give away gently used items. Tons of waste is placed in our land fills each year. If we can sell, trade or donate to individuals that can continue the use of these items, it prevents them from being thrown in the trash/landfills. Any remaining items, are donated to the Goodwill.

I will volunteer at least 4 hours in my community

I will watch 1 documentaries about climate change.

Each day, I will spend 30 minutes exploring a new area around my neighborhood (e.g., park, water body, nearby trail, community garden, green space, etc.).
