I will watch a video about methane digesters (also commonly known as anaerobic digesters).

I will contact a local installer/distributor to see if a solar water heater makes sense for my house.

I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during the EcoChallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.

I will upgrade the windows or weatherstripping in my home or office to reduce air leaks and save on energy costs.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

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

I will spend at least 10 minutes watching videos and/or reading about the environmental benefits of silvopasture.

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

I will plant 20 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.

I will spend at least 5 minutes learning about the need for more regenerative agriculture.

I will find out who in my city makes decisions that impact neighborhood walkability and express my support for better walking infrastructure.

I will spend at least 2 minutes researching the impact of my diet to see how it contributes to deforestation.
