Althea Graham

The New York Green Team, together with the Stamford Green Team invites you to a Sustainability themed Trivia Night! Together we will strength our knowledge over composting, recycling, reusing, and win great prizes! This interactive event is designed bring our community together while enhancing our understanding over the importance of living a sustainable life. Members of the NY Green Team will provide a fun environment to relax, learn, and grow with our peers. There will be 60 minutes of trivia, games, prizes, and conversations!

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

Spend 15 minutes browsing the new World Climate Hub website, hosted by Deloitte US Sustainability!

I will plan ahead to only use paper products made from post-consumer recycled paper for my home or office.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 0.11lbs (0.05kg) a day or 3.3lbs (1.6kg) a month by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

Cheap, single-use items and disposable packaging end up blowing around as litter more often in poor and BIPOC-majority neighborhoods. I will avoid buying and using 4 single-use plastics and instead replace them with durable options.

I will Practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will enjoy 1 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

If you have kids at home, encourage them to create a logo for Deloitte NPSI using scrap paper and any crayons, markers, or materials you have in your home. Email a photo of the final product to Emma Howe (emhowe@deloitte.com) for a chance to be featured in our Earth Month recap email and potential future internal communications!

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.
