On average, a tree absorbs 10 kilograms (22 pounds) of carbon dioxide yearly during the first 20 years. To do my part, I will plant 1 trees in my community, public parks, or backyard.

I spend 30 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.

I will watch 2 documentaries about climate change.

I will watch 2 documentaries about economy, energy, or industry.

Each day, I will spend time developing a readiness plan for my household in the event of an emergency.

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.
