Each day, I will go on a plog or plalk for 15 minutes and collect 5 items of litter.

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

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.

I will have a conversation with one or more nonprofit organizations I want to be involved with.

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

I will spend 5 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.

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 20 learning about the past and present indigenous communities in my regions and what I can do to be supportive.

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

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