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

I will contact 3 elected officials to voice my opinion on the importance of restoring farmland in my region, including both public and private land.

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

I will cook 3 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

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