What can I say? I’m enthusiastic about the environment. Today, my gift to you, is 150 ways to help save Planet Earth!
- skip rinsing dishes before putting them in the dishwasher…great if you’re a lazy environmentalist!
- switch to CFL bulbs
- eat vegetarian once I week. I like Gardenburgers or Morningstar Farms chick patties. Ask me how to make a zucanu!
- do your laundry using cold water
- save paper to use as scrap paper
- turn the faucet off when you brush your teeth
- shower with someone
- unplug rarely used appliances
- adjust your thermostat 2 degrees (make it 68 in winter and 78 in summer)
More ideas can be found at the websites below (and you thought I was going to actually list 150!!!)

And the #1 thing you can do to help our next generation, is visit my new site Nature Needs Children, which encourages kids to get outside and learn about the environment. (Sorry to keep you all in suspense for so long). It is new, so please be patient as we grow from a brand new baby blog into a big strong blog that eats its veggies!
