Using the guidelines on page 68, I will use the Oxfam “doughnut” diagram to consider how the factors in the inner circle have affected my personal well-being, or what their absence would mean for my life.

I will pick up litter on my street and ask others to join me in taking care of our neighborhood.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 30 minutes this week to reflect on the systems I am a part of and my role in them.

I will tell 5 people why peace, justice, and sustainability is important to me and what my vision for a sustainable world is.

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).

Using the guidelines on page 113, I will construct a vision board of my own ideas about how I will act for change and then share it with my group.
