Sometimes protecting nature requires feeling connected to nature. I will invest 30 minutes in exploring and appreciating a natural area in my region, whether a forest, wetland, coastal area, or somewhere else.

I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.

I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will cook 2 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during Earth Month Ecochallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.

I will watch a video about methane digesters (also commonly known as anaerobic digesters).

I will spend 30 minutes researching businesses owned by women, immigrants, and Black, Indigenous, and people of color that I can support when shopping.
