Happy Earth Day! Lets Save our Planet!
Protecting our planet is so very important to me. In honor of earth day I’m posting all the ways in which I try to conserve and reuse energy on a daily basis. I’m not perfect but I try.
• I mainly work from home.
• I recycle anything and everything I can.
• I reuse and repurpose everything
• I use low energy light bulbs.
• I wash my hair about every 3 days. (Shorter showers)
• I only run full loads laundry/dishes.
• I do laundry on warmer days in order to run the dryer less.
• I water my lawn may be once a week.
• I use reusable grocery bags.
• I use a reusable sports bottle instead of the one use plastic bottles.
• I dispose hazardous material properly.
Due to the drought I’m not planting any trees this year. Instead I’m taking my surplus of low energy bulbs to a friend’s house and installing them.
