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 avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill per day by composting my food or learning how to.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

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

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my family, for 30 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.)

I will exercise daily for 30 minute(s) per day for two weeks.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

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

I will spend 10 minutes checking out all the energy-saving opportunities on Chelan PUD's web page, ConservationMakesCents.org. Action Resource > >

I will learn about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

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 sign up as a Sustainable Natural Alternative Power supporter of local solar and wind energy. Action Resource > >
