I will volunteer 4 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home or dorm room.

I will not work more than 8 hour days each day to practice work-life balance.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will practice the seven principles of Leave No Trace when doing nature activities alone or with family and friends.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 each day that I do this.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 10 conversations.

I will connect with a local nonprofit, environmental or otherwise, and find out how I can get involved or become a member.

I will offer to help 2 person(s) who are in need each day.
