STEP 3: PLEDGE TO REDUCE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT

Carbon Activity 1

I PLEDGE TO TURN DOWN MY THEMOSTAT 3º

Just 3°F DOWN in the winter and 3°F UP in the summer can reduce your carbon footprint by over 1,000 pounds every year!

Carbon Activity 2

I PLEDGE TO USE 100% LED BULBS AT HOME

LED bulbs look great and use a lot less power. PLUS, each 60 watt bulb you replace can save $125 over the five-year life of the LED.

Carbon Activity 3

I PLEDGE TO HAVE 1 MEATLESS DAY A WEEK

If everyone in the U.S abstained from eating meat, fish, or dairy one day per week, we would eliminate 9 million tons of carbon.

Carbon Activity 4

I PLEDGE TO TAKE AN ACTION TO REDUCE MY TEAM’S ELECTRICITY AND/OR NATURAL GAS CONSUMPTION

Small actions can make a big difference. Look for ways that you can save energy.

STEP 4: PLEDGE TO REDUCE YOUR FRESH WATER USE

Water Activity 1

I PLEDGE TO TURN OFF THE WATER WHILE SHAVING OR BRUSHING MY TEETH

You can save up to 8 gallons of water EVERY DAY with this tiny change!

Water Activity 2

I PLEDGE TO WASH ONLY FULL LOADS OF LAUNDRY AND DOUBLE CHECK I’M USING THE CORRECT LOAD SIZE

You can save hundreds of gallons of water and watts of electricity just by waiting to wash only full loads!

Water Activity 3

I PLEDGE TO CHECK MY TOILETS AND TAPS FOR LEAKS TWICE A YEAR

Leaks can waste over 200 gallons per day- that’s up to $70 in a single month!

Water Activity 4

I PLEDGE TO REDUCE MY TEAM’S WATER CONSUMPTION

One great example is by using water efficient fixtures, using less water or capturing rainwater for irrigation.

STEP 5: PLEDGE TO REDUCE YOUR MATERIAL WASTE

Materials Activity 1

I PLEDGE TO USE DRYER BALLS INSTEAD OF DISPOSABLE DRYER SHEETS

Dryer balls decrease drying time by 30-50 % AND reduce waste every single cycle!

Materials Activity 2

I PLEDGE TO INVEST IN A REUSABLE WATER BOTTLE TO KEEP ME HYDRATED

Say no to disposable plastic bottles! Over a million are purchased every minute, and only a small fraction of them get recycled.

Materials Activity 3

I PLEDGE TO RECYCLE THE OLD PHONES AND ELECTRONICS I’VE BEEN HOARDING

For every million cell phones recycled, 35,000 pounds of copper, 772 pounds of silver, 75 pounds of gold and 33 pounds of palladium can be recovered.

Materials Activity 4

I PLEDGE TO REDUCE MY TEAM’S PURCHASING OF SINGLE USE PLASTIC MATERIALS

Consider using compostable, reusable or recyclable materials.

STEP 6: PLEDGE TO SUPPORT BIODIVERSITY

Biodiversity Activity 1

I PLEDGE TO PLANT 4 NATIVE TREES AT HOME OR AT WORK

Each tree absorbs about 50lbs of carbon annually! That can mean over a ton of carbon over its lifetime.

Biodiversity Activity 2

I PLEDGE TO PLANT NATIVE WILD FLOWERS AT HOME OR AT WORK

Plant native wild flowers. These are beautiful, support pollinators, enrich the soil, and help protect against invasive species.

Biodiversity Activity 3

I PLEDGE TO LEAVE NO TRACE ON MY HIKES AND OUTDOOR RECREATION

Eliminate the chance of widening trails, spreading invasive species, harming local habitats, and generally being a nuisance to nature by leaving no trace on your treks!
