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 only use reusable containers for my lunches at work or school.

I will keep 8 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream.

I will avoid sending 4 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day.

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

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided at work.

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

I will replace 6 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

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.
