10 Tips to Help You Go Green!

  1. Take a tote bag shopping and say “no thanks” to both paper and plastic.
  2. Support products that are created with minimal packaging.
  3. Buy produce that is organic. This means that it was grown with no pesticides, which makes it healthier for you and for the planet.
  4. Instead of buying bottled water buy reusable water bottles.
  5. Buy energy efficient light bulbs.
  6. Recycle! The average person creates 4.5 pounds of trash per day.
  7. Reduce paper by choosing to receive e-bills and e-notifications.
  8. Refill printer cartridges.
  9. Conserve water. Start today by taking a shorter shower.
  10. Support eco-friendly products and services.
