Missions

Local missions are things you can do where you live — in Columbus that means your own street, shoreline or school. Global missions add up across every arena on the network.

7-Day Zero Single-Use Week

Seven days with no disposable cups, bottles, bags or cutlery. Carry your own. Check in each night.

+0.1 kg waste per check-in

A typical day of single-use items (one coffee cup, one bottle, two bags, one set of cutlery) weighs about 0.1 kg (Ocean Conservancy item weights).

30-Day Sort-It-All Streak

Rinse and sort every recyclable item for a month, and learn what your local program actually accepts. Check in daily.

+0.5 kg waste per check-in

The average US household discards about 2 kg of recyclable material a day and captures only a third of it (EPA Facts & Figures). Sorting everything diverts ~0.5 kg more per day.

21-Day Compost Streak

Keep food scraps out of the bin for three weeks: a backyard pile, a worm bin, or your city's green cart. Check in daily.

+0.25 kg waste per check-in

Americans waste about 0.27 kg of food per person per day (EPA). Composting it keeps that out of landfill, where it would release methane.

14-Day Short Shower Streak

Keep every shower under five minutes for two weeks. A timer or a two-song playlist does the trick. Check in daily.

+25 L water per check-in

Cutting a shower by three minutes saves about 28 litres with a standard 9.5 L/min showerhead (EPA WaterSense). We count 25.

10-Day One-Degree Challenge

Set heating one degree lower or cooling one degree higher than usual for ten days. Check in daily.

+0.3 kg CO₂e per check-in

One degree of thermostat change saves roughly 1 to 3% of heating or cooling energy, about 1 kWh-equivalent a day for a typical home, or ~0.3 kg CO₂e (IEA, US DOE).

Tools that feed these missions

How we count, and what we don't claim

Check-ins are self-reported and shown as logged. Proof missions are reviewed by a person before they count as verified. Each per-action figure is a conservative public estimate (EPA, IEA, UN Environment or peer-reviewed sources named on the card), rounded down. These numbers are for keeping score and staying honest, not for carbon accounting or offsets. If you think a figure is wrong, say so on the contact form and we will fix it in public.
