Lena Baugher Mortello

I will support a community garden by volunteering, donating, or advocating for a new or existing one.

Sometimes protecting nature requires feeling connected to nature. I will invest 60 minutes in exploring and appreciating a natural area in my region, whether a forest, wetland, coastal area, or somewhere else.

I will replace or remove from my current diet the palm oil, coffee, and cocoa products that are known to contribute to deforestation.

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

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

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

I will enjoy 3 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.
