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 explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 5 conversations.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 5 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

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

I will spend 10 minutes practicing Loving-Kindness Meditation to nurture love and compassion for myself and others.

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

I will make sure I’m registered to vote. While I’m at it, I’ll sign up to help others register too!

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

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.

I will replace 2 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 133 lbs of CO2 a month and 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

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 visit a nearby farm to pick my own fruits and veggies.
