" I have always believed that small actions can make a meaningful impact. My passion is to protect the environment by inspiring others to adopt eco-friendly practices. I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because it offers the opportunity to collaborate with like-minded people, gain hands-on experience, and align my efforts with the SDGs to build a sustainable future. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Sustainably You

I want to encourage people to integrate more sustainable habits into their normal lives. Some habits that anyone could do, easy, and with some practice it will become almost like an unconscious habit. I thought of two habits to implement and if we follow SMART goals: 1) Specific: Always having a separate bag/ using one's own bag for grocery shopping in campus. Measurable: Aiming to always use your own bag everytime shopping alone. Counting the times they need an extra plastic bag. Achievable: Starting with keeping a reusable plastic bag to help building the habit of always using one's own bag. Relevant: Less consumption of plastic and is sustainable. Time-bound: 6 months maintenance could make this a habit. 2) Specific: Making ones own Tiffin. Measurable: Counting the Number of days per week that a student can manage to make their meals. Achievable: Starting with small homemade snacks and then integrate into making decent meals. Relevant: Less consumption of snacks (every snacks outside have plastic packaging), promoting healthy eating. Time-bound: 6 months maintenance could make this a habit.
