Matthew's actions
Materials
Reduce unnecessary purchases
I will reduce unnecessary purchases by only buying what I truly need.
Highest-Impact Solutions
Reduce food waste
The average American wastes over $400 and tons of energy on uneaten food per year, I will save that money and reduce the amount of food I waste by effectively meal planning, not overordering, and composting or donating leftover food.
Highest-Impact Solutions
Test drive an electric vehicle (EV)
After conducting online research about available models, I will complete a test drive at a local dealer.
Highest-Impact Solutions
Get a rooftop solar quote
I will connect with a local installer/distributor for a solar panel system consultation on my house.
Quick Fixes
Roll windows down instead of A/C
I will use the natural cooling of putting my windows down when in the car instead of the air conditioning.
Food
Eat Local
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.
Flying
Avoid or carbon offset your flight
If I have to fly, I will choose to offset the CO2 emissions of my flight by purchasing a carbon offset.
Create Your Own Action
Reduce Plastic Use
I want to reduce the amount of one-time plastic I'm using in my life. The unnecessary waste is ridiculous.
