I bought a set of four organic cotton tote bags to use when I go grocery shopping to cut back on plastic bags.
What are some other ideas for helping the environment like that?
Cut down on water use. Use cold water to wash your clothes and use the Purex natural Elments detergent it is also super concentrated and earth friendly and cheap too. Oh and get the energy bulbs and be safe with them though if they break on you it can emit mercury into your body if you inhale and you have to go about cleaning and disposing of them properly, but they are good on saving energy. Put your water heater at 120 degrees no higher. When you are showering wet your hair turn off faucet then lather with shampoo, then rinse, turn it back off then soap up your body and then rinse. Also use your towels twice in a row, get these cheap hooks to hang your towels on that go over your door and they are like $2 for two and also reuse your plastic water bottles a few times and refill with your own water. Use the green works cleaning products. They are affordable. Use e-mail as much as you can for paying online bills instead of getting paper bills. Walk to the store if you can and have time. Use your car less and also please recycle, contact your local recycling company on how to do this properly. Okay I am sure there is more but I can not think of it all now.

I just used the yahoo green impact calculator and it gave me a 2.5 and later when i go check the plan tells me i have a 8.7
That its just simply imposible, i am a vegetarian along with a organic diet, all the bulbs in my house are flouresent, i strictly use biodegradable cleaning producs and i dont drive a car.
i grow as many beautifull plants as i can in my backyard with out making it look too crowded.
even my clothes are organic cotton and so on, when i do groceries i have my own tote bags and i do not use paper or plastic bags.
and no people i am not a spychopath i am just a concerned 24yo who trully cares.

Paper or Plastic? Uh...Can I Get Back to You?
“Paper or plastic?” It’s probably the single most common question in daily life – a query that can lead to embarrassing indecision, a kind of eco-paralysis that spares neither the planet nor the people standing behind you in line.
As it turns out, the environmentally correct answer to the question isn’t as straightforward as you might think. In California, even the state’s highest court is debating the issue , as it prepares to decide whether communities can ban plastic bags at grocery stores without first studying the environmental effects of the increased use of paper.
The conventional wisdom is that a bag made of paper is the more earth-friendly option. Indeed, on that assumption, San Francisco banned plastic bags in grocery stores in 2007. Other California communities, including Oakland and San Jose, are also considering their own plastic bag prohibitions. Meanwhile, since January, grocery shoppers in Washington D.C. have been charged a five-cent tax on disposable bags – both plastic and paper. And Baltimore's City Council is considering a ban on plastic bags or a levy on all disposable bags. Even environmental laggard China banned the use of ultra-thin plastic bags in 2008, while consumers in Italy, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, and Ireland all now pay a surcharge for using plastic.
“To Market, To Market” with Your Markets of New York City Tote ...
, a team of highly skilled artisans and designers helped me produce this limited edition market tote. You can pick up an advance copy of the guidebook and a tote bag at the Brooklyn Lyceum Spring Food and Craft Market this weekend!
The guidebook uses little icons as a key to tell the reader what kind of market each one is – artisan, farmer, food, or flea. The icons were originally designed by , the brilliant graphic designer who created the entire book, including the cover that makes me so happy. We paid a lot of attention to the flea because my dad was a biologist who would have insisted on its having six legs, being an insect and all.
