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

I will spend at least 20 minutes learning how to properly dispose of my refrigerator, freezer, and other refrigerants at the end of their useful lives.

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

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

I will encourage my office to hold meetings virtually whenever possible instead of requiring travel.

I will replace or remove the palm oil, coffee, and cocoa products in my current diet that are known to contribute to deforestation.
