Brittney Powell

I will write down three things every day for two weeks that I am grateful for or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will watch a documentary film about food with family and friends and talk about what we learned.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 per day that I do this.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and/or unsubscribing from catalogs.

I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will naturally heat and cool my house, office, or dorm room by opening or closing my windows, curtains, and blinds, and by using fans.

I will take a 20-minute walk outside each day.
