- Buy used items or donate things rather than throwing them away if they can still be used.
- Don't turn things on/leave things on that you don't need. For example, you don't need a light on when it's daytime, just open the blinds.
- Use the sprinklers less. Grass and most other plants only need to be watered by the sprinklers 3 times a week for periods of 30 minutes.
- Use your computer for documents instead of paper unless paper is required. This may use energy and pollute, but it saves trees, which minimizes pollution.
- This may be gross to some people, but the good old saying "Yellow is Mellow, Brown flush it Down". Believe it or not, but one toilet flush uses up to 1.6 gallons of water in new toilets. That is the amount of water a person is recommended to drink in 3 days.
