Ben Datlen

I will start a compost bin where I live.

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips, and I will only use muscle-powered transportation for all other trips.

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

I will find out who in my city makes decisions that impact bike routes and express my support for better biking infrastructure.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.

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

I will enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of trees and plants in my yard.

I will spend at least 60 minutes researching and weighing my options to see if a hybrid or electric vehicle makes sense for my lifestyle.
