1. Turn off electronics that aren’t being used. We all do it, but taking the two seconds to unplug your cell phone charger or your laptop can really make a difference.
2. Use a cup when you brush your teeth. Leaving the water running or using disposable cups isn’t good for the environment. Save money and water by using a cup.
3. Take your own bags to the market. They’re reusable and a lot stronger then the plastic bags you get at the market. Reusable market bags come in so many different styles, you can make a fashion statement while going green at the same time.
4. Carpool when you can. If you can’t carpool or don’t want to, use the metro. You can have all sorts of adventures by using public transit.
5. Keep your tires at there proper pressure, you’ll save dollars at the pump.
6. Use appliances/products that have an Energy Star, Water Sense or a Green Seal.
7. Shop at your local farmers market. Buying locally helps cut down carbon emissions and helps support your local economy.
8. Support companies (like Modaa Inc.) that are trying to make a difference environmentally.
9. If everyone just took a moment to ask themselves "Is this the best choice for me, my environment, my family?" a huge shift would take place and everyone will eventually benefit by a greater quality in goods and services. And… benefit from a healthier, happier economy, environment and eco system.
