Some things I've Done

Since I chose a GREEN theme for this BLOG Page, I will list a few of the things I have done to reduce my carbon footprint.
  1. Switched ALL my incandescents to CFL bulbs
  2. Of course we turn off lights in rooms we have vacated
  3. Started watering the lawn by hand rather than the sprinkler
  4. Rain Barrels
  5. Kill switch/remote control outlets for my electricity vampires
  6. Worm Farm
  7. Mister for my A/C unit outside.
  8. I reuse and re-purpose plastic and glass containers
  9. Reusable Shopping Bags
  10. I raised the A/C thermostat to 77 degrees
  11. Water saving Shower Heads
  12. Ethos Gasoline Additive
  13. Water filter for drinking water
  14. Drive less
  15. Stick to the speed limit
  16. Make my own household cleansers
  17. Swap DVDs and Books for ones I want to see/read
I will elaborate on these items separately in future BLOGS...this is just the list to start.
