Lynn Potts

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

I will enjoy 3 meatless or vegan meals each day of the challenge.

I will test drive an electric bike at a local distributor to see if it makes sense to use one in place of my car, or to extend the area I can cover by bike.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce our carbon footprint and our impact on the environment.

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

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

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