Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, making sure to not contaminate recyclables with non-recyclables.

I will spend at least 60 minute(s) learning about the need for more regenerative agriculture.

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 30 minutes researching the gender gap in our leaders and elected officials and discuss with my family and friends.

I will spend at least 60 minutes researching if it is possible to build carbon neutral buildings.

I will enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.
