Every little bit ...Cristan - thanks and you should. Every little bit helps.<BR/><BR/>Leah - Oh I forgot that one. We have the reusable shopping bags as well. I love that it's cut down on the number of trips it takes to get the groceries in the house. And we let our yellow mellow as well. Also when we're finished with the pool we drain the water into our holding tank as well. And the green cart is for organic garbage like food scraps, tea bags, coffee grinds, paper plates, paper towels, waxed paper and such.<BR/><BR/>Darlene - thanks I thought it was pretty cute myself. That's all really great too!!Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05032883451591260574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10040676.post-77109248345975520532008-08-07T17:47:00.000-04:002008-08-07T17:47:00.000-04:00um let me see.....1st of all real cute pic of Abby...um let me see.....1st of all real cute pic of Abby!!...and um well...we use the light bulbs you do, and only use the air when needed....recycle like crazy, Tim is a bit nuts with this!!...and no lights on here...we sit in candle light tripping over cats...gesh!...someone help me!!darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05591853162762475058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10040676.post-13619055049233387822008-08-07T12:16:00.000-04:002008-08-07T12:16:00.000-04:00I would like to say we were on your same level, bu...I would like to say we were on your same level, but we are far from it. We do recycle everything allowed in the blue bins. I have no clue what a green cart is, so I'm guessing we don't have those around here... We use re-usable grocery bags when we go to the store instead of the plastic bags. We'd love solar panels on our roof as well... We generally do the "yellow's mellow, brown goes down" tactic with the toilets to reduce water waste, and we don't fill the tub really full when bathing the kids. We don't bother watering the grass over the summer. We don't have AC, and we keep our house at 67, have swapped most of our light bulbs to the energy efficient ones. I think we do okay in being "Green" but we definately have a lot to learnLeahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13160551209809872319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10040676.post-41951516356085163042008-08-07T00:19:00.000-04:002008-08-07T00:19:00.000-04:00WOW!
