Matthew Mentone

I will practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.

I will enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meals each day of the challenge.

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching heat pumps to see if installing one makes sense for my home/building.

I will cook 2 meals with zero-waste each day.

I will take a walk for 15 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will avoid buying and using 1 single-use plastics and instead replace them with durable options.

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

Using Drawdown's Job Function Action Guide, I will learn about climate actions I can take at work.
