striving for green

Last year I read It’s Easy Being Green, which has a wonderful list of eco-friendly tasks to clean up your life and your environment. I checked off all the items I wanted to tackle. So since it’s been a year, I thought I’d list all the items and mark off what I’ve accomplished over the past year. (I also have my own eco-wishlist that I’m continually updating.)

  • Turn off water while brushing teeth/shaving.
  • Use strainer on drains.
  • Use water-based paints.
  • Properly discard paint cans by drying them out.
  • Use old towels and T-shirts as rags.
  • Buy concentrated products.
  • Keep a full fridge.
  • Set fridge at 37º F.
  • Keep fridge clean.
