I will spend at least 5 minutes researching how to make my home more energy efficient through better insulation and weatherization.

I will take a walk for 10 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will see if my family is eligible for the Energy Saver Kit from Energy Trust. If we are, I will replace 20 lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

Using the solar study link in the resources below, I will create a plan for a solar installation at my school campus, home, or building of my choice, and share my findings from the solar study with the building owner and other stakeholders.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will start a compost bin where I live.

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during Youth Climate Ecochallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.

I will start or tend a garden at my home, whether in my yard or in containers on a porch or windowsill.
