I will sketch or paint outside.

I will only run the dishwasher when it is completely full to use less water and electricity.

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

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

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

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

I will replace 30 minute(s) of screen time per day with other activities.

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