I will replace 60 minute(s) of screen time per day with other activities.

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

I will disconnect from my email when not working or studying.

I will hike a local trail. (Consider joining one of Chelan Douglas Land Trust outings such as May 8 Sam Hill Walk for Families.)

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.

I will wear clothes until they are dirty and only run the washing machine for full loads.

I will sketch or paint outside.

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

I will research toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

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.

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

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