1. Buy Organic. Organic produce tastes better, and it’s healthier! Start by buying even just 2 percent organic and work your way up from there.
2. Eat Locally. Look for locally grown foods at your grocery store or farmer’s market.
3. No Paper, No Plastic. Anytime you hit the grocery store, meat market or mall, take your own reusable shopping bag.
4. Unplug! You can reduce your consumption of electrical energy simply by unplugging electronics when they’re not in use.
5. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Get in the habit of recycling your glass, plastics, aluminum and paper.
6. Save Water. Take quick showers, fix leaky faucets and turn off the water while you brush your teeth. That alone can save almost 2,000 gallons a year.
7. Reach for the Stars. Energy Star appliances use less energy, save you money and help protect the environment.
8. Turn Down the Heat. Turning down your thermostat 1 degree in the winter and up a degree in the summer could save you 3 percent in home energy costs.
9. Green Your Ride. Buying a hybrid is not the only way to conserve fuel. Keep your tire pressure at the recommended level for greater fuel efficiency. Keep the AC on low, check your air filter and drive a little less.
10. Switch Out Your Light Bulbs. Compact fluorescent light bulbs last 10 times as long and are 25 percent more energy efficient than conventional bulbs.
