Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. To reduce the landfill space needed for my lifestyle, I will not use single-use items this week (i.e. plastic straws, plastic cutlery, plastic water bottles, disposable coffee cups, and plastic bags).

I will research peace and justice issues that affect my community and tell 3 friends and/or colleagues each day about what I learn.

I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors.

I will use the communication methods I read about this week to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly: my roommate, my parents, my co-work, my partner, my classmates, or my children.

I will find out what local sustainability issues are most urgent in my region, including both social and environmental justice concerns.
