What have you done to make your home more environmently "Green"?

I'm doing the same what your are doing.

also After I finish with my food I buried them in the Soil so this way we could prevent more methanol gas mixing in the air and it good for fertilizer

we have installed a new shower head that releases less water...

changed all globes to the energy efficient ones

turn off all lights when not needed...

all bath and shower water has a special pipe that releases the water onto the garden rather down the drain.

I try my best to carry around enviro. bags, so I don't need to use plastic.

Recycle all plastic and paper waste.

we are on fairly tight water restrictions in Australia, so most of the above is a necessity.

There are many things that I do to be more "green", and some are very inexpensive too:

~Of course, recycle everything I can! (Ex: cans, bottles, plastics, paper, ect.)

~Buy energy saving light bulbs (Which you are already doing!!!)

~Buy things like clothes, paper, ect that are made from recycled materials

~Use reusable batteries or recycle dead batteries properly

~Use reusable shopping bags

~When I get plastic shopping bags, I use them instead of just tossing them. They can be used to pick up dog poo, line small trash cans, ect.

~I'm trying not to use paper napkins or paper towel as much as possible. Instead I use cloth napkins that can be washed.

~Try to use fewer paper plates and more washable ones.

~Take shorter showers

~I turn off lights whenever possible

~Unplug appliences when not in use

~Some nights, I use candles instead of lights

~Try to buy more organic foods and local foods (for example, at a farmer's market)

~Use regular silverware, not plastic

~Use eco friendly products in replace of regular dish washing liquids, house cleaners, ect. (Greenworks)

~Use cold water to wash clothes (Tide Cold water works great)

~On a nice day, I turn off the air/heat and open some windows. You save of the cost, get a nice fresh breeze, and help the environment.

~Planted trees around my house to shade and save on using more air conditioning

~Bought one stainless steel, reusable, water bottle instead of using regular plastic ones and then getting rid of them. This one you can clean and use over and over again!

~Changed the setting on my sprinklers to use less water

~Buy eco friendly fertilizers (I think they have them at Home Depot)

~When I'm painting, they have eco friendly paint at Home Depot

~Walk or ride a bike wherever possible

~Carpool if possible

-using reusable trash bags when shopping

-turning off lights

-filling the dish washer when its completely full

-shorter showers

-turning off plugs when i'm done with them

-opening windows more

-some environmentally products

-trying to use rags instead of paper towels all the time

-washing full loads

and if i was living alone i'd do if its yellow let it mellow if its brown flush it down. but i dont pee yellow bc i drink a lot of water and also i live with a roomie

I have just changed one bulb to an energy efficient bulb and plan to convert the rest very, very soon. I live in an apartment so I can convince my neighbors to do the same if they don't do it already.

I am building a wind energy powered mill that will produce electric, will save me money, less dependent from utility companies, and is safe for our environment. See link below for details.

we recycle & compost.

we use cfl & the fan instead of a/c. this winter we plan to turn the heat back 3 degrees.

unplug what's not in use.

In all truth I have done nothing at all to make my room more environmentally friendly. I guess its because I like it the way it is.

recycling

not takin long showers

light bulbs!

i changed my light bulbs as well. i also use www.blackle.com instead of google beacuse it saves watt hours and gives u better results !! try it... i have also started recylcing.

please make me best answer BEACUSE I CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRERMENT !!
