I will switch 2 incandescent lightbulbs in my home to LEDs to save an average of $5 and 60 pounds of carbon emissions per bulb per year.

If I have to fly, I will choose to offset the CO2 emissions of my flight by purchasing a carbon offset.

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

I will keep my tires properly inflated to maximize my vehicle's fuel efficiency.

I will avoid sending food waste to the landfill by composting my food or learning how to.

I will connect with a local installer/distributor for a solar panel system consultation on my house.

I will switch to an electric vehicle and save at least $800 in fuel costs alone and prevent about 3 tons of carbon emissions compared to a typical gasoline-powered car every year.

I will install rooftop solar on my home and generate $1100 in energy savings and prevent over 6 tons of carbon emissions per year.

I will reduce the idle electricity load used by "vampire devices," especially when I'm not using my devices, saving an average of $70 and nearly a half ton of carbon emissions per year.

I will walk or bike 2 mile(s) per day instead of driving and avoid up to 1.61 pounds of carbon emissions.

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