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 follow Generation 180 on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, and will share their content that resonates with me.

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 unnecessary purchases by only buying what I truly need.

I will keep my car engine's RPMs low by avoiding abrupt accelerations and coasting into stops, improving my fuel economy by 15% –30% .

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

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

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.

I will substitute half of my meat consumption with plant-based foods to save an average of $420 on groceries and over 7 tons of carbon emissions per year.
