At first I wasn’t going to enter because I didn’t think I was doing anything MAJOR, but then I remembered that it’s the small things each of us does that make the difference. I no longer purchase bottled water, and use my Brita Pitcher to utilize my tap water. I no longer purchase the keurig single serve coffee’s and instead I purchased the reusable filter, and by coffee in bulk. I no longer purchase paper plates and ucups, and instead use dishes that I wash by hand. I recycle everything and post signs in the house for the kids 2remember to turn off lights and appliances, and use energy efficient light bulbs.

Every bit helps!

I reuse my sandwich bags as much as possible; I make my own all purpose cleaner (using vinegar); bring my own handy dandy bags when food shopping; only use public transportation

We do several things in my house:
1. DO NOT leave the water running when washing dishes
2. Reuse any plastic bags we may get when shopping (we prefer to bring our own bags to the grocery)
3. Opt out of plastic bags whenever possible (carry the items in our hands)
4. Make sure appliances/electronics that are not is use are plugged out.
5. Use public transportation instead of driving to work.

The list goes on, but that’s all I’ll share for now

I carpool with others to go to stores or anywhere for that matter. I unplug electrical items that I am not using. I do not turn on lights unless necessary.

I’m definitely taking recycling more serious than I used to. It feels good to contribute!

On Earth Day 2011, my hubby and I helped my mother plant a tree and also planted one at our home. Also I started getting our children involved in recycling, they are so involved they will constantly remind me “not to through that recycleable away Mommy”. I’m so proud of them for paying much attention to help our Earth.
