I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

I will disconnect from my email when not working or studying.

I will write down three things that I am grateful for each day OR reach out to thank someone who's doing something positive for our world's health and well-being each day.

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) per day.

I will not purchase anything but food during the challenge.

I will research toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.
