I will mend clothing for myself, family or friends.

I will volunteer 10 hours in my community.

Studies show a grass lawn is water intensive and on average it require about 30 percent of a household’s water consumption. I will do one or more of the following actions in my yard or community to conserve water and improve habitat: plant indigenous plants, landscape with water-efficient plants, add mulching, replace a lawn, and/or use eco-friendly fertilizers.

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 replace manual thermostats with smart ones.

I will find out what food programs are in my area and donate food and/or other items that they request.

I will replace 30 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.

Within my community at home or work, I will organize or attend a local cleanup event.

I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste.

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.

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

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

I will make a few homemade cleaning products.

I will spend 30 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.

Join the EcoChallenge event on the Community Champion Portal to track qualifying actions. Select actions are eligible for matching funds going to EcoChallenge. Link provided in the dropdown menu.

I will watch 1 documentaries about equity, gender, health, or peace.

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

I will try a new vegan or vegetarian recipe and share how it turns out on the Ecochallenge feed, or with family and friends.
