Shannara's actions
Waste
Personal Waste Audit
I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.
Transportation
Walk Instead
I will walk 4 kms(s) each day instead of driving to avoid sending CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.
Energy
Turn It Off
Do at Home
I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.
Food
Learn the Truth About Expiration Dates
I will spend at least 30 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.
Food
Composting
I will start a compost bin where I live.
Waste
Skip the Straw
Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
Waste
Use a Reusable Mug in Those Cold Arenas
I will avoid sending 10 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.
Transportation
Go For A Daily Walk
I will take a walk for 90 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.
Energy
Online Energy Audit
Do at Home
I will complete an online energy audit of my home or office and identify my next steps for saving energy.
Energy
Switch to Cold Water
Do at Home
I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 725 kgs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

REFLECTION QUESTIONTransportation Walk InsteadCanadians drivers travel at least 13000 KM a year and as high as 18000km. Simply walking for your daily coffee or to the store could add up. Where do you think you can walk instead of drive?
