Bridget's actions
Waste
Compost Food Waste
I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill per day by composting my food.
Nature
Go for a Daily Walk
I will take a 20-minute walk outside each day.
Health
Cut Out Harmful Self-Care Products
I will check labels on my shampoo, lotions and/or beauty products. I'll replace products that use known carcinogens such as formaldehyde, cocamide diethanolamine, DMDM hydantoin or benzene.
Health
Go Organic
I will choose organic as often as possible to reduce exposure to pesticides, which are unhealthy for me as well as the planet.
Waste
Needs vs. Wants
I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.
Simplicity
De-Clutter
I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.
Health
Avoid Artificial Sweeteners
I will cut out or reduce all artificial sweeteners in my diet, especially acesulfame potassium, aspartame, sucralose and saccharin - all which can decrease human health and pollute our waterways.
Health
Skip Partying
I will refrain from going out during the week and instead choose sober and healthy activities like exercising, advocating for change and getting outdoors.
Waste
Use a Reusable Mug
I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug.
Water
Ditch Microbeads
I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.
Simplicity
Limit Social Media
I will limit my social media use to once per day.
Waste
Use Reusable Bags
I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.
Waste
Recycle Everything I Can
I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.
Food
Smart Seafood
I will not eat seafood.
Water
5-Minute Showers
I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.
Waste
Avoid Disposables
I will not use any disposable plates, cups, or cutlery.
Food
Reduce Dining Hall Waste
I will carefully fill my plate in the dining hall and take only what I can eat. I'll also inquire about ways to improve composting and use of recyclable foodware.
