I will avoid buying toxic plastics, including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl.

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

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

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 3 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will replace 1 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will watch a documentary film about food with family and friends and talk about what we learned.

I will reduce the amount of unwanted mail I receive (catalogs, phone books, etc.).

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

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

I will lobby my workplace to have reusable dishes and silverware in order to minimize disposables.
