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 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 create a plan to and advocate for solar installation at my business, apartment building, or campus.

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

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 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 enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will replace 5 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will commute by bike 4 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 3.58 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will use public transit 3 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 0.97 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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

I will plan ahead to only use paper products made from post-consumer recycled paper for my home or office.
