Deepak Mehta

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 4 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 2 conversations.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about the experiences of trans, femme, and/or nonbinary people.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minutes each day.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will research the social or environmental issues in my community that matter to me and tell 2 friends and/or colleagues each day about what I learn. I will also share what I learn on the Ecochallenge feed.

I will find out what stocks and bonds are in my investment account portfolio to determine if they align with my values (e.g. environmental, social responsibility, community).

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.
