Not sure where to start? Across this sprint, the actions most participants are focusing on fall into three areas: minutes spent learning, pounds of CO2 saved, and plastic items reduced. Browse all five categories, but if you're feeling overwhelmed, look for 🔷 actions tied to these three impacts as your starting point.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will create an "Eat First" area in my fridge to prioritize food that needs to be used right away for my household of 1. Doing so will prevent 0.34 pounds of food per household member from entering the landfill.

I will shorten my showers to 5 minutes to save water and reduce energy use - each time saving up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water!

I will turn off lights, electronics, and appliances when not in use to save energy.
