I like these tips. I especially like the fact that they’re not complicated and aren’t inconvenient to implement.

I would love to find out more about the compost pile thing. I hate how much garbage we throw out and then worse they are in plastic bags that don’t degrade quickly. So I would love to put old food back directly into the soil. I just hope it doesn’t attract wild animals. I’ve also started using green product and cleaners. They actually do clean just as well. I’ve been diluting shampoo with water and adding a tablespoon of baking soda and love the results. I’m hoping to be free of most commercial products soon. I don’t even use bleach! We’ll get there one day.

I just started using cloth reuseable shopping bags and I LOVE them! They are so much bigger than regular plastic grocery bags and look stylish to boot!

Good advice. I’m not a tree hugger or go green fanatic, but I do want to do my part to respect this wonderful planet God provided for us. I do have reusable shopping bags and I use cloth towels instead of paper towels. I know I could do more, and I think the compost pile for kitchen scraps will be next.

I really need to walk to more of my errands. Otherwise, I try hard to do the rest of these!

Great List! As a mom, I find that teaching my children these things starts as young as toddlers. We can teach them to turn lights off in rooms, the water off when brushing teeth, etc. I must admit that I tried the flourescent energy saving light bulbs this week (bought them at Costco) and they give me a headache (I have migraine problems and these contribute). But this just means we will have to focus our efforts elsewhere.

I do about half of those now. But it was great reading all the “green” tips. I doubt I will start a compost pile, but the rest are completely doable!
