I will enjoy 1 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.

I will replace or remove the palm oil, coffee, and cocoa products in my current diet that are known to contribute to deforestation.

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during the EcoChallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will encourage my office to hold meetings virtually whenever possible instead of requiring travel.

When they are available, I will purchase products made from bamboo instead of wood, plastic, or metal.

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).
