Michael's Actions
Understanding Systems through Conflict Transformation
Pay Attention to Current Events
I will observe local, national, and international news each day this week through a conflict resolution lens.
It's all connected
Meditate
I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 20 minutes this week to reflect on the systems I am a part of and my role in them.
Peace Talks
Share my Actions
I will make my environmental actions visible with a lawn sign or bumper sticker, or by posting to my social media networks.
Responding to Systemic Violence
Reduce Single-Use Disposables
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).
Justice for the Whole Community
Support A Sharing Economy
I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors.
Justice for the Whole Community
Do Nature Activities
I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 120 minute(s) this week. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)
Justice for the Whole Community
REDUCE MY FOOTPRINT
I will calculate my ecological footprint and talk with my family or roommates about way we can reduce our negative enviromental impact.
Peace Talks
Recognize Manipulative Communication Tactics
This week, I will spend 5 minutes learning more about gaslighting, tone policing, and/or microaggressions so that I can avoid them in my own communication.
It's all connected
Meet My Neighbors
I will connect with my community by meeting 3 new neighbor(s) this week.
It's all connected
Help Others
I will "expand my boundary of caring" by offering to help 2 person(s) who are in need this week.
