Answer:
10 ways to Go Greener at Home (Besides Just Recycling)
1. Plant a simple backyard garden.
It’s good to remember where our food originates, and it doesn’t have to be huge or complicated.
2. Switch your lightbulbs to energy efficient types.
3. Create a homemade compost bin for $15.
4. When it’s time, replace appliances to energy efficient models (look for the “energy star” label).
5. Stop using disposable bags. Get some reusable bags—my favorites are Flip & Tumble. Or, make your own—they’re insanely easy.
6. Buy an inexpensive reusable water bottle, and stop buying plastic disposable bottles. My favorite is the Kleen Kanteen with the sport cap for everyday use and the foldable Vapur for travel.
7. Wash laundry in cold water instead of hot.
8. Turn off lights when you leave the room.
9. Don’t turn on lights at all for as long as you can — open your curtains and use natural light.
10. Drive the speed limit, and combine as many errands as you can in one trip.
