I will make it a habit to always turn off the lights when I leave a room.

I will source 1 meal(s) per day from local producers. This could include signing up for a local CSA, buying from a farmer's market, visiting a food co-op, foraging with a local group, or growing my own ingredients.

I will minimize the amount of time spent idling in my car to avoid wasting fuel.

I will keep my car engine's RPMs low by avoiding abrupt accelerations and coasting into stops, improving my fuel economy by 15% –30% .

I will drive the speed limit to increase my fuel economy by 7% –14% .

I will make it a habit to only run a full dishwasher to save water and energy.

I will set up a sharing initiative in my community to enable effective sharing of stuff, time, skills, and space.

I will avoid unnecessary printing and "go digital" whenever possible.

I will avoid using disposable plates, cups, or utensils. Instead, I will use long-lasting and reusable materials.

I will reduce unnecessary purchases by only buying what I truly need.
