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 avoid buying toxic plastics, including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl and instead replace them with bioplastic or durable options.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will use my spending power to reward companies leading in purchasing green energy and incentivize others to invest more in green energy.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option. If my utility does not offer one, I will purchase Renewable Energy Credits to match my usage.

I will write or call 4 elected official(s) telling them not to support fossil fuel subsidies and instead support wind energy generation.

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

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 0.11lbs (0.05kg) a day or 41lbs (18.6kg) a year by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

I will enjoy 3 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

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