I will save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will replace 16 ounces of animal protein with plant-based protein every day.

I will reduce the amount of water flushed and save up to 11 gallons (41 L) of water each day by installing a toilet tank bank.

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

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of plants and trees at my home or work.

I will plant 5 square feet of native species, landscape with water-efficient plants in order to reduce general water usage, and minimize fertilizer and pesticide use.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
