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 watch 1 documentaries about climate change.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about water justice in my region.

For an upcoming vacation, I will spend 60 minutes planning out a staycation in my region. For reference, one several hour flight releases the equivalent of nearly 14% of the annual emissions from a car.

I will spend 30 learning about the past and present indigenous communities in my regions and what I can do to be supportive.

I will watch 1 documentaries about economy, energy, or industry.

I will use the communication methods I read about to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly (i.e., my roommate, parents, co-worker, partner, classmates, or children).

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 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.

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 spend 30 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.
