Kat Kushner

I will only purchase wood and paper products from ecologically certified sources like Forest Stewardship Council.

I will take a walk for 20 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will commute by bike 4 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 5.75 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

When they are available, I will purchase products made from bamboo instead of wood, plastic, or metal.

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching cement alternatives that reduce the carbon footprint of concrete.

I will enjoy 4 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will start a compost bin where I live.

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 donate to The Nature Conservancy, which works with Indigenous Peoples to secure land tenure and resource rights, support improved governance and local institutions, assist in natural resource mapping, planning and management; and strengthen livelihoods and sustainable economic development.

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will spend at least 30 minutes watching videos and/or reading about the environmental benefits of silvopasture.
