Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 5 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.

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

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 2 conversations.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 0.11lbs (0.05kg) a day or 3.3lbs (1.6kg) a month by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

I will take a 10-minute walk outside each day.

I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 10 minute(s) each day.

I will keep 4 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will spend 10 minutes doing an activity where I'm both moving my body and enjoying myself.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided when I have to print documents.

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