  48. My daughters and i love to compost all our scraps off food. We have a compost bin and my girls take a daily bucket down to the compost. When the bin is full the girls love to empty it and spend hours digging out the worms and playing with them. Its a great way to give back to the earth and a great way to teach the girls about giving back to the soil!

  49. We recycle as much as possible. Sometimes have to take it out 2x/wk! Turn down the heat and throw on a blanket & slippers, energy efficient appliances, cold water wash, cloth diapers - as much as we can do we try to. Meatless Mondays, and second hand clothes are also things we do...Already like you on facebook ;)

  71. We're a little greener by - letting yellow mellow (we don't flush everytime we go); we keep our heat down (I can't stand it being too hot anyway); we use a toaster oven more instead of our large oven; we wash in cold water; we use only "green" cleaning products such as vinegar, baking soda, etc.; we buy a lot of our regular needs at the bulk store to save packaging; we recycle everything we can and compost what we can't recycle (we're lucky if we put out a garbage can once a monty).

  81. We have a programmable thermostat. It is set to go down at night and when no one is home during the day. We it's cold enough to plug in the car we have it on a timer so it's on for the shortest time needed. We use reusable bags at the grocery store and our lunches are packed in reusable containers.

  109. My oldest daughter has started school this year and every day we pack a litter-less lunch. We also use reusable bags whenever we can and re-use the plastic bags. Anything and everything that can be recycled or composted we do. My daughters use a lot of household materials in their crafts - I got a jewellry box made out of a tea box for Valentines day :-) Like most others we keep the temperature down in the house and wear sweaters or use extra blankets.

  117. A green thing I love to do is "upcycle". I love finding something and repurposing it rather than throwing it out. For example, the other year I made a purse out of upcycled materials. The hardware for the purse came from an old purse and the outside fabric of the bag was made from a canvas tank top!
