I will source 20 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 30 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.

I will replace 5 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will start a compost bin where I live.

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