* 7. Take a canvas bag when you go to any store, not just the grocery.
* 8. Use silverware instead of disposable eating utensils.
* 9. If you are printing a long document, save paper by printing on both sides of the paper.
* 10.Recycle! Glass, metal, plastic, paper, the possibilities are endless.
* 11.Use old rags or sponges to clean up messes instead of paper towels.
* 12.Use old t-shirts to make rags.
* 13.Buy organic clothes. There are jeans, t-shirts, and other items available by Arizona and WWF available at JCPenney.
* 14.For the gals, buy organic beauty products. Physician's Formula has a good all-natural line out. Use less hair spray and more hair gel.
* 15.Buy a hybrid car. They do cost a lot, but they save you money and reduce CO2 levels in the air.
* 16.Do not grow a superiority complex. People see this and assume all green people are annoying 'Holier than Thou' people which turns them off being green.
* 17.Plant a tree. Again, it reduces CO2 levels and adds oxygen, even if you plant just one. :-)
* 18.Eat less meat! Going vegetarian reduces your carbon footprint by 1.5 tons a year.
* 19.In the Winter, wear a sweater inside instead of turning up the heat, in the Summer, open the windows to let hot air out and cool in, instead of using air conditioner.
* 20.Give harmful chemicals, such as cleaning products, to neighbors who will use it instead of dumping it down the drain.
* 21.Don't litter! Don't dump anything down sewer drains, in any body of water, or on the ground.
* 22.Don't keep the gas on, and turn it off often, turn the lights off, every time you leave a room.
* 23.Buy the exact amount of what you need, not too little, not too much. Give leftovers to other people you know.
* 24.Buy energy efficient light bulb, costly but helpful. Think about the polar bears and rain forest and nonrenewable resources!!!
