If everyone consumed as much as North Americans, we would need five planets to sustain our high-waste, high-pollution habits.
Each of us can make a difference. By learning more about our individual impact, we can significantly reduce the amount of pollution and waste we produce as a whole. It can start with
something as simple as buying fewer pieces of clothing or driving one less day per week.
Please watch the video, and show your commitment to decreasing your impact on our One Planet by signing this pledge and learning more from the resources provided by Care2. Pledge to live a One Planet Life, learn more and teach others about how it can be done!
I pledge to start practicing One Planet living by:
- Educating myself about how to reduce my impact on the Earth
- Telling my friends how they can reduce their impact on the Earth
- Reducing the amount of clothing and luxury items I buy
- Reducing energy consumption in my home
- Buying healthy, local, organic food
- Cutting down on transportation
- Buying environmentally-friendly home and personal care products
- Cutting down on water use and waste in my home
- Offsetting my impact by supporting organizations that work to preserve natural resources
Sign Pledge
We signed the “Pledge to Live a One Planet Life” petition!

I already live a one planet life, but I will work on walking more, and really planning my day to drive the least amount as possible.
