Almost every airline allows people to donate unused frequent flier miles to charities so the organizations can use the miles to buy tickets for their work instead of using monetary funds. But Delta is one of the only airlines to support animal welfare and environmental and humanitarian organizations through its Delta Sky Wish program. With just a minimum of 1,000 miles to donate, you can give Delta SkyMiles to nonprofit organizations like the Nature Conservancy, the Humane Society of the United States, UNICEF and Habitat for Humanity. Learn more at delta.com.

Give up this one sweet treat: chewing gum. Despite the fact that chewing gum goes in the mouth, it does not biodegrade, and you cannot compost it. Old gum that ends up improperly disposed of on sidewalks, lamp posts and everywhere and anywhere else in between is also a health hazard; it can be filled with bacteria and germs from the person who chewed it. And young birds that mistake chewed gum as food can die, since it’s not ingestible. If you do chew gum, wrap it up in a piece of scrap paper and throw it in the trash. But if you want to curtail bad breath, reach for an apple instead of gum: It contains pectin, which helps neutralize odor.
