I will volunteer 2 hours in my community.

I will replace 5 incandescent light bulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

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

I will spend 30 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.

I will watch 10 documentaries about equity, gender, health, or peace.

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 manual thermostats with smart ones.

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

I will replace 60 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.
