I will walk or bike 2 mile(s) per day instead of driving and avoid up to 2.1 pounds of carbon emissions.

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

I will introduce a friend or family member to Generation 180 to add more people to the clean energy transition.

I will source 2 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 use the natural cooling of putting my windows down when in the car instead of the air conditioning.

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

I will use water efficiently and install low-flow water fixtures to conserve the significant energy it takes to manage our water system.

I will read about the energy impact of flying.

I will telecommute to avoid my commute's carbon output.

Instead of flying, I will compare alternative travel methods for my next long-distance trip.

I will read Generation 180's blog to remain informed about the transition to clean energy and the role I can play in it.

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 use clean A/C and furnace filters in my home to ensure they run as efficiently as possible.

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

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