Sophie Brightman

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

I will keep track and reduce my consumption of refined sugars, including sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

I will decide which social or environmental issue in my community is most important to me and tell 2 friends and/or classmates each day about the issue.

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 eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will take a 20-minute walk outside each day.

We may find more meaning and joy in life when our actions are aligned with our personal values. I will determine what my top 3-5 core values are so that I can better align my actions with them.

I will disconnect from my email when not at work or school, using my personal time for endeavors that help me live out my values.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.
