How can you live Greener?
While sweeping changes will have to be made in order for the world to get back down below 350 ppm of CO2 in the atmosphere, small changes made by individuals can certainly help this process along.
Examples include:
-Increasing fuel efficiency through improve driving techniques (http://ecomodder.com/forum/EM-hypermiling-driving-tips-ecodriving.php)
-Biking and walking more
-Downsizing
-Upgrading to Energy Star appliances
-Purchasing carbon offsets
-Planting a garden
-Buying local and organic food (local is actually more sustainable, even if it isn't organic)
-Turning off your lights when not in the room
-Washing clothes and dishes with cold water
As cliche as it sounds, small changes can make a big difference. Think about the Leave No Trace mantra of "what if everyone else does the same thing?
What others can you think of? What are you doing to live a more sustainable lifestyle?
