I will replace manual thermostats with smart ones.

I will carry all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me each day to raise my awareness of how much waste I produce.

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

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

I spend 10 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.

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

Using Seafood Watch's list, I will enjoy 3 sustainable seafood meals each day.

Each day, I will go on a plog or plalk for 10 minutes and collect 10 items of litter.

I will mend clothing for myself, family or friends.

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally). As an example, a plane from New York to Los Angeles (~2,450 miles) generates about 65 tons of carbon dioxide.

I will organize a book club to read about climate change and sustainability.
