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

I will establish an emergency kit and escape route in case of natural disaster like wild fire.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will search the webpage of The Nature Conservancy for 10 species they help protect, 10 natural preserves in Washington they steward and consider one way I could participate in their work in the Moses Coulee Preserves. (Hunter Steward Program, pigmy rabbit habitat repair, trail maintenance, fence repair)

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

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

I will contact a septic system company to ask how I can keep my septic system healthy with non toxic products or schedule a cleaning.

I will spend 5-10 minutes each day meditating, in prayer or reading inspirational literature.

I will limit my social media use to once per day.

I will replace 15 minute(s) per day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

I will read about native bees and take an action to help them.

I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will download the app at TokenTransit.com/app to purchase transit fares on my smartphone

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

I will reduce food waste by carefully filling my plate and only taking what I can eat.
