Brent Carter

I will increase the cultural diversity of my friend group.

I will decide which environmental issue in my community is most important to me and tell 1 friends per day about the issue.

I will work from home 1 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

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 cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.

I will maintain a steady highway speed on the highway, accelerate and decelerate gently, not idle my car for more than 2 minutes, and make sure my tires are inflated.

I will walk 6 mile(s) per day instead of driving and avoid sending up to 4.38 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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 replace 8 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $33 per bulb over the life of each bulb.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water.

I will donate $20 or more to the Sustainable Natural Alternative Power program.

I will naturally heat and cool my house, office, or dorm room by opening or closing my windows, curtains, and blinds, and by using fans.

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

I will participate in "Bike to Work Day", "Ride of Silence" or another group bike event.
