E R

I spend 20 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.

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

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

I will spend 15 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.

I will replace 40 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 volunteer 5 hours in my community.

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

I will save up to 6 gallons (23 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers. Tip: Use a timer to practice or count to 60 a few times.

I will mend clothing for myself, family or friends.
