I will plant native species, landscape with water-efficient plants, and use eco-friendly fertilizers.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of plants and trees at my home or work.

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

I will fix faucets that have been wasting up to 9 gallons (34 L) of water per faucet per day.

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

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

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.
