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

I will donate unneeded clothing, books, and household items rather than throwing them away.

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

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency.

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

I will commit to getting 20 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 9 gallons (34 L) of water per faucet every day.

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

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

I will use a clothesline or the dryer's automatic setting (not the timer).
