Kate Eichman

I will spend at least 20 minutes learning about the legacy of redlining and how city planning and environmental justice issues are interconnected.

I will encourage my office to hold meetings virtually whenever possible instead of requiring travel.

I will assess the vehicles used by my company or college and advocate for a purchasing policy focused on electric and fuel-efficient vehicles

When they are available, I will purchase products made from bamboo instead of wood, plastic, or metal.

I will spend at least 10 minutes researching the impact of my diet to see how it contributes to deforestation.

I will calculate the greenhouse gas emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce my negative impact on the environment.

I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).

I will improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or implementing some other small improvement.
