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

I will spend at least 0 minutes watching videos and/or reading about the environmental benefits of silvopasture.

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

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

I will start a compost bin where I live.

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

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

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

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning about the need for more regenerative agriculture.

I will use public transit 99 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 11.25 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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.
