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

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).

I will test drive an electric bike at a local distributor to see if it makes sense to use one in place of my car, or to extend the area I can cover by bike.

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 donate to nonprofits that install clean cookstoves in low-income countries.

I will cook 1 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

I will spend at least 9 minutes researching and advocating for a comprehensive high speed rail network in my country/region.
