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 15 minutes learning how to properly dispose of my refrigerator, freezer, and other refrigerants at the end of their useful lives.

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

I will research and support local farmers who have made the decision to not use synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

I will spend 15 minutes each day researching women-owned businesses I can support when shopping.
