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 watch a documentary about food waste.

I will wear at least item(s) of clothing that came from a second hand store, clothing swap, or other reuse source.

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

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 cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips, and I will only use muscle-powered transportation for all other trips.
