I will avoid buying and using toxic plastics.

I will visit Rocky Reach Dam and learn about salmon migration.

I will attend May's "Green Drinks" event on Thursday, May 16th (featuring Link Transit).

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

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

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) per day.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

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

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 shop used first when purchasing clothing or supplies.

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

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

I will increase the cultural diversity of my friend group.

I will join a smoking cessation program, and stick with it during the challenge, cutting out harmful air pollutants while improving my own health.

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

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