I try to be greener by reusing plastic bags and recycling soda cans. Thanks for the great giveaway!
I try to be greener by recycling, washing my clothes in cold water, and using environmentally friendly cleaners.
I choose not to own a car. I’m 29 years old and have never had a car! I bike or take public transit. Sometimes its a pain but sometimes its easier anyway! I never have to worry about parking, gas or insurance.

I recycle, compost, and try to ride my bike to work when possible.

I try to be greener in lots of ways because I think it’s so important. The biggest was learning to stop using plastic bags and take my own. When I do get plastic bags they are now trash bags and did you know the liner of a cereal box works as wax paper!

I just bought reusable grocery and produce bags to use!!
My favorite way to be greener is to walk to the grocery when I only need something little (and have a couple hours – it is 4 miles)
We have chnged out our lightbulbs and reuse our own shopping bags.

My favorite way to be greener is to turn on the AC only if it is truly hot. I leave the windows open as long as possible!

I will remember to take the re-usable bags to the grocery store with me and I will use the recycle bin more often.

We make our life greener by regularly recycling everything possible. We also use CFLs, Energy Star appliances, and reusable shopping bags. We combine driving trips to save mileage — and turn things like lights off when not in use. *Thanks* for the giveaway!

I try to recycle as much as I can… I also make sure I have a bag with me when I go out for walks… this way I can pick up all the stray trash around my neighborhood. A greener earth is a more beautiful one!
I bought a Brita filter water pitcher and a reusable bottle. Instead of buying plastic water bottles, I fill up my bottle to take with me.

We’re a one-car family who uses reusable grocery bags, launders our clothes in cold water, and doesn’t turn on the AC til absolutely necessary! Small things but every bit helps!
…and I subscribe via google reader!
Recycle cans, newspapers, etc.
Do some of our shopping at second hand stores and garage sales.
Hang clothes out on the line to dry in summer.
I subscribe
I use reusable shopping bags and I’ve been trying to re-purpose things ie. turning an old shower curtain into a skirt
I recycle as much as possible.
I try to be greener by using a Sigg water bottle, recycling ALL the time (I even rinse out takeout containers and recyclable lids from fountain soda cups), and turning off the lights and unplugging appliances/electronics from the wall when I’m not using them – just to name a few!
I bring in my own bag when I buy groceries. I love that Trader Joe’s bag!

We don’t have curbside recycling here, but that doesn’t stop me. More often than not, my trunk and sometimes my backseat is full of bottles, cans, and paper waiting to be taken to a drop off site.
I no longer buy bottled water
We are trying to be green by growing a garden and hanging our clothes out to dry.

No more grocery bags! We are trying to bring our own bags 100% of the time.

Recycle and using reusable bags whenever possible (including gift giving- no more expensive bags that go right into the trash). Attempting to grow our own salad garden. We started refilling steel water bottles- instead of buying water bottles every week. Baby steps to helping out!

We recycle everything we can and compost most of what we can’t. We use high efficiency light bulbs, only use reusable shopping bags, and both have Siggs instead of buying water bottles.
I try to be greener by using reusable shopping bags, participating in our curbside recycling program, chage our lightbulbs to more energy efficient ones. Thanks for the giveaway.
We follow the 3rs, Reduce, Reuse, & Recycle. This year I also switched to cloth napkins…trying to use less paper. Save a tree!!
Great giveaway, thanks.

I bought reusuable grocery from publixs and use them everywhere
I bring my own canvas bags to the grocery store (when I remember). If I don’t, I always save and reuse the plastic/paper bags I end up with…
Just started following you on google!
Thanks for the opportunity! I always use the reusable grocery bags and I recently switched all my lightbulbs to the eco-friendly ones. Also, I try to ride my bike or walk, instead of driving, as much as I can!
We have a large organic vegetable garden, and fruit trees. We raise free-range chickens (for eggs), comost and recycle. Use rain barrels for garden irrigation. Buy organic and always use reusable tote bags! thanks for the chance!!
