you can.
 Buy a reusable water bottle.
 Use washable food containers instead of disposable plastic wrap and bags.
 Use cloth napkins and towels instead of paper.
 Take reusable bags with you whenever you go shopping.
 Buy recycled paper, use both sides, and think twice before you print.

Save Your Energy

 Walk, bike, or use public transportation instead of driving.

 Shut off lights, computers, and other electronic equipment when you're not using them.
 Use compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs).
 Put on a sweater instead of turning up the heat.
 Use a fan instead of air conditioning.

For Health's Sake

 Buy locally grown and/or organic produce.

 Reduce the amount of animal products you eat.
 Start composting your kitchen and yard waste.
 Grow only native plants and don't use pesticides, fertilizers, or chemicals.
