Amy Merrill

I will tell 1 people why peace, justice, and sustainability is important to me and what my vision for a sustainable world is.

This week, I will practice intentionally listening to 2 people I disagree with or do not share common experience with.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about food deserts and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

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 make my support for social and/or environmental justice visible with a lawn sign or bumper sticker, or by posting to my social media networks.

I will spend 60 minutes watching a movie about a peace, justice, or sustainability issue I would like to know more about.
