Brooc Barb

I will tend to a garden each day, or work on starting one.

I will increase the cultural diversity of my friend group.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

I will exercise daily for 15 minute(s) per day for two weeks.

I will not use any disposable plates, cups, or cutlery.

I will find out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

I will create a rain garden or bioswale, or use rain barrels to collect water for outdoor watering needs.

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

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

I will make my environmental actions visible with a lawn sign or bumper sticker, or by posting to my social media networks.

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 switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will replace 60 minute(s) per day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

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

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my family, for 60 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.)
