Sometimes protecting nature requires feeling connected to nature. I will invest 60 minutes in exploring and appreciating a natural area in my region, whether a forest, wetland, coastal area, or somewhere else.

I will take a walk for 30 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will spend 60 minutes learning about carbon offsets, and why they are a necessary solution in combating a climate crisis.

I will donate to nonprofits that install clean cookstoves in low-income countries.

I will support a community garden by volunteering, donating, or advocating for a new or existing one.

I will use public transit 5 miles per day and avoid sending up to (___) lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will spend 60 minutes researching and shopping from 5 businesses owned by women, people of color, or immigrants.
