I will donate to Native American Rights Fund, which protects tribal natural resources and environmental rights and promotes Native American Human Rights.

I will ask my local seafood market or grocery store if their seafood is sustainable and share the Seafood Watch resources so they can stock sustainable options.

I will spend 15 minutes researching cattle feed and manure management, or visiting a dairy farm to learn about their farming practices.

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning how local indigenous tribes are caring for the land by participating in a training, workshop, or presentation.

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

I will source 10 percent of my food from local producers each day. This could include signing up for a local CSA, buying from a farmer's market, visiting a food co-op, foraging with a local group, or growing my own ingredients.

I will visit a coastal or ocean site to experience the ecosystem and look for the presence of macroalgae/seaweed.

I will visit seafoodwatch.org and download the app to commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

I will spend 10 minutes learning about carbon offsets, and why they are a necessary solution in combating a climate crisis.

I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin practicing it in my own life.

I will avoid buying and using 3 single-use plastics and instead replace them with durable options.

I will write 1 letters or emails per day to a public official or representative to advocate for policies that protect wetlands.

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, including electronics and metals.

Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).
