I will commute by carpool 5 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 4.03 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).

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of wave and tidal energy.

I will spend at least 60 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of geothermal energy and consider investing in this technology.

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

I will spend at least 9 minutes researching and weighing my options to see if a hybrid or electric vehicle makes sense for my lifestyle.

I will spend at least 15 minutes finding out if my city, region, or state offers incentives for retrofitting existing buildings.

I will find out how to make my home more energy efficient through better insulation and weatherization.

I will take a walk for 10 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will set up a visit to tour a green roof in my city, and ask about the codes and process for installing a green roof.

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

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

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