I will source 50 percent of my food from local producers each day. This could include signing up for a local CSA, buying from a farmer's market, visiting a food co-op, foraging with a local group, or growing my own ingredients.

I will spend at least 4 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 4 minutes finding out if my city, region, or state offers incentives for retrofitting existing buildings.

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

I will spend at least 3 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

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