Dharini's actions
Industry
Choose Recycled Paper
Recycled Paper
I will plan ahead to use paper products only made from post-consumer recycled paper for my home or office.
Food, Agriculture, and Land Use
Eat plant-based!
As a team goal, we would like to encourage everyone to try at least one plant-based dinner a week.
Transportation
Be more sustainable with our commute
As a team goal, we would like to challenge everyone to try a lower carbon footprint alternative way to commute to work at least once a week. Consider public transit, cycling or carpooling! Did you know? UBC carpool drivers can earn up to $2 per day on their UBCcard if they use the Liftango app and pick-up at least one person on their way to and from campus. Link below.

Watch Drawdown's Climate Solutions 101 Series
Family Planning and Education
I will watch Drawdown’s Climate Solutions 101 and share what I learned with others.

Recycling
I will practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.
Food, Agriculture, and Land Use
Cook With Sustainable Seafood
Improved Fisheries
Using the Seafood Watch guide, I will feature a sustainable seafood ingredient in a new recipe.
