Kyle Backman

I will naturally heat and cool my house, office, or dorm room by opening or closing my windows, curtains, and blinds, and by using fans.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

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 adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will only purchase bulk food items and avoid all single-package items.
