I have been composting for years, gardening, use vinegar/baking soda for cleaning (NO chemicals), cold water wash/line dry, added insulation 2-3 times over the years to the attic, upgraded windows, added a rain barrel, drastically reduced watering, push mower for grass, planted over 300 trees in yard in 15 years, run evap cooler rather than a/c, power strip/cfl's (reduced carbon load), keep heat at 60/55 night, water savers in bathroom, air pressure car tires check/tune-up (better mpg), walk more, stay politically active on the green front with e-mails, calls and letters, pay bills on line (less paper/p.o. delivery gas), became a vegetarian several years ago, don't buy products with excessive plastic packaging, recycle 98% of used materials, encourage others to become greener and have had some good success. I want the great grandchildren of the world to see whales, tigers and polar bears too. And not have to live their life in a boat (unless they want to)
