This is what I've done in the last two years:
- Moved closer to work to minimize driving
- Take the train downtown (on nights out)
- Bike to work on occasion (it's a huge freaking hill)
- Bought programmable thermostats, LED bulbs, vent louvres.
Dropped electric use 20%
- Eat organic (helps my IBS), cook at home, buy in bulk, freeze
- Started composting and recycling more. My city has good programs for such
- Ask for paper bags at grocery store, avoid plastics. Use glass storage containers, etc
- jopsen 9y ago- Bring a backpack to the grocery store, Note, though this won't scale, you need to take political action to make a real change.
- pacifist 9y ago>> this won't scale Yes it will. If everyone does it that's called scaling.
- anigbrowl 9y agoIt helps, but not enough to solve the overarching problem.
- elchief 9y agoUgh, I hate people that bring their backpack to the grocery. It slows down the packing process a lot. Paper bags are a-okay with me.
