An Inconvenient Truth

saw the movie and was very inspired. i do believe that there are things we all should be doing to help our world, and this includes saving our environment and planet. go here- http://www.climatecrisis.net/takeaction/ and see ways that you can help too. things that I am doing:

*I replaced regular incandescent light bulbs with compact fluorescent light bulb (cfl). You can buy them online with free shipping!

*Only run your dishwasher when there’s a full load and use the energy-saving setting
(we actually NEVER use ours, even though it came with the apt)

*Be sure you’re recycling at home

*Use less hot water (I wash clothes in cold water)

*Use a clothesline instead of a dryer whenever possible (we dont even own a clothes dryer so I dry everything on a line or rack)

*Turn off electronic devices you’re not using (like TV, computer, lights, etc)

*Reduce the number of miles you drive by walking, biking, carpooling or taking mass transit wherever possible (ha, don't have a car, so I walk or take buses/subway

Little things like that can make a huge difference and if we all do own little part, we have save our planet.
