I will spend 30 minutes each day researching women-owned businesses I can support when shopping.

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

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

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching the impact of my diet to see how it contributes to deforestation.

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

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

I will use public transit 12 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 6.1 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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