William Palmer

I will find out who in my city makes decisions that impact neighborhood walkability and express my support for better walking infrastructure.

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

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

I will take a walk for 20 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will calculate the greenhouse gas emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce my negative impact on the environment.

I will replace 7 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will contact a local installer/distributor to see if a solar water heater makes sense for my house.
