I will spend 5 minutes doing an activity where I'm both moving my body and enjoying myself.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will enjoy the sunrise and/or sunset each day.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided when I have to print documents.

I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 60 minute(s) each day.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will enjoy 3 meatless meal(s) and/or 0 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

Both systemic and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.
