I will enjoy the sunrise and/or sunset each day.

I will replace 4 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 60 minute(s) each day.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will take a 30-minute walk outside each day.

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 30 minute(s) each day. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)

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

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 120 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will replace 15 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.

I will work from home 1 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

I will replace 30 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

I will take a walk outside for 30 minutes each day.
