Share & Voice: 11 Ways to Go Green

I get the magazine women's health and sometimes they have really cool ideas about nutrition, health and a lot more. This time I came across 11 ways to go green and I thought it would be cool to share it with everyone! These are also really easy ways to go green, that we could do now! 




1. Turn it down: don't use as many lights and don't use the plastic bags


2. Replace the five most frequently used lights in your home with compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs







3. Wash your clothes in cold water


4. Turn down your water heater to 120 degrees 


5. Lower your thermostat by 2 degrees 


6. Go vegetarian one day a week 


7. Use a clothes line or a drying rack 







8. Install a low-flow shower head 


9. Get rid of the dishpan, using a dishwasher cleans better and uses less water! 


10. Replace your appliances with Energy-Star approved products







11. Carpool once a week

    It's always a good reminder to read and be aware of what you can do (or not do) in order to make our planet a better place. Nice info
