Every year on Earth Day, millions of people take action to protect the planet. But here’s the thing; helping the environment isn’t just about big events or once-a-year efforts. It’s about the small choices we make every day.

From what you eat, to how you get around, to how much you throw away, your daily habits have a real impact. And when enough people make small changes, it adds up in a big way.

Your Task: Upgrade One Habit
Pick one everyday habit in your life that impacts the environment.

Step 1: Identify It
Choose something you do regularly.
Examples:
- Using plastic water bottles
- Leaving lights or devices on
- Throwing away food
- Fast fashion / shopping habits

Step 2: Improve It
Come up with a simple, realistic upgrade.
Ask yourself:
- What’s one small change I could actually stick to?
- How could I make this easier or more fun?

Step 3: Make It Contagious
How could you get others to join you?
- A challenge with friends?
- A social media idea?
- A reminder or visual?

Step 4: Create a quick response (5-7 sentences or a short video with a sharable link) that includes:
- Your habit
- Your improved version
- How you’d encourage others to do it too
