Living Green – 1 thing at a time.

Living green does not need to be overwhelming or daunting.  Just start with 1 thing at a time.

  1. Replace a burnt out light bulb with an LED bulb, which are safer than CFLs, more energy efficient, and will last many times longer.
  2.  Start buy 1 items of food that you use often with an “organic” product.  Just make sure it’s “certified” organic.
  3. Stop using 1 disposable item.  This can be a coffee cup or a water bottle.  Use your new non-disposable item with pride.
  4. Use reusable shopping bags when grocery shopping.
  5. Switch to eco-friendly cleaning products.
  6. Reduce your use of paper towels. Use re-useable, washable cloths whenever possible.

Making 1 change at a time makes living green an easier process.

  1. Great ideas! And don’t forget plastic film recycling – the supermarket bags may be gone, but there are still many things which come plastic wrapped, and film can be recycled. Film can’t go in your usual recycling because it tangles in the machinery. Go here https://www.plasticfilmrecycling.org/ to find locations and see all the kinds of plastic wrappers you can stop dumping in landfill. 🙂
