The new year is a great time to set new habits and priorities.

Last year, the World Resources Institute shared the [19 top climate-friendly choices, ranked](https://www.wri.org/research/effective-impact-behavioral-shifts) with data from 47 academic journal articles. Here, we've compiled a checklist of matching Wren Actions (not directly 1:1, but we hope it can inspire new ideas)!  
Feel free to use this page as inspiration for your 2026 climate action goals. Which actions are you already doing? What more would you like to do?
