Justin Vantassel

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 spend at least 30 minutes researching and advocating for a comprehensive high speed rail network in my country/region.

I will assess the vehicles used by my company or college and advocate for a purchasing policy focused on electric and fuel-efficient vehicles

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning about the need for more regenerative agriculture.

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching other Drawdown Food Solutions.

I will enjoy 1 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

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

I will replace 9 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will take a walk for 45 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.
