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.

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

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.

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 reuse materials instead of buying new ones and donate materials that I no longer use.

I will conserve hot water when cleaning, bathing, and doing the laundry.

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

I will opt out of junk mail lists to reduce wasted material and energy.

After assessing my heating and cooling system with a professional, I will install a heat pump that can be powered with clean energy like solar or geothermal.

I will get regular car maintenance checks to ensure that my vehicle is running as efficiently as possible.
