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

I will explore the interactive map in the links below to find a supermarket that does not use HFC refrigerants near my home.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, making sure to not contaminate recyclables with non-recyclables.

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

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.

I will spend 15 minute(s) learning about the climate impact of refrigerants and what climate-friendly refrigerants are by using the links below.

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching cement alternatives that reduce the carbon footprint of concrete.

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

I will find out how to make my home more energy efficient through better insulation and weatherization.

I will plant 5 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.
