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

I will source 50 percent of my food from local producers each day. This could include signing up for a local CSA, buying from a farmer's market, visiting a food co-op, foraging with a local group, or growing my own ingredients.

I will spend at least 10 minutes researching other Drawdown Food Solutions.

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

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching and weighing my options to see if a hybrid or electric vehicle makes sense for my lifestyle.

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips, and I will only use muscle-powered transportation for all other trips.

I will use public transit 4 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 1.63 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will research and support local farmers who have made the decision to not use synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

I will start a compost bin where I live.

I will improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or implementing some other small improvement.

I will save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.
