I will commute by carpool 28 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 37.03 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

My boyfriend owns his own contracting company and has innumerable recycling, upcycling, reuse options with extra and leftover materials. We want to create as much 'new' with these resources as possible. Hoping for some new furniture from this challenge.

I will take a 10-minute walk outside each day.

I will engage in nature-based activities with my kid(s) for 5 minute(s) each day. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

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

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

I will visit a nearby farm to pick my own fruits and veggies.
