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

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.

After conducting online research about available models, I will complete a test drive at a local dealer.

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

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

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.

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

I want to reduce the amount of one-time plastic I'm using in my life. The unnecessary waste is ridiculous.
