Tobey Layne

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

I will enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will take a walk for 30 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will replace manual thermostats with smart ones.

After researching the incentives at the federal, state, utility, and local levels, I will contact a local installer/distributor for a solar panel installation consultation on my house.

I will spend at least 120 minutes researching and weighing my options to see if a hybrid or electric vehicle makes sense for my lifestyle.

I will source 75 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 save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.

I will commute by bike 15 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 7.99 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option. If my utility does not offer one, I will purchase Renewable Energy Credits to match my usage.

I will use my spending power to reward companies leading in purchasing green energy and incentivize others to invest more in green energy.
