Share and Voice: Green Living for Dummies

Green Living for DUMMIES

Soooo I was at Target the other day (not referring to the trip with Heather) browsing through the dollar section and stumbled upon this little book, "Green Living for Dummies." The one I found and purchased is the pocket edition by Yvonne Jeffery, Liz Barclay, and Michael Grosvenor.
Throughout the book you'll find ways to work greener transportation into your lifestyle, the best ways to eat locally and organically, how to rid your life of clutter, and tips for conserving water and energy in your home!

After reading half of the book so far I've realized that many of the topics they cover are things we've been learning about all semester!

Here are some fun tips the book suggests:
Do laundry only when you have a full load.
Line-dry your clothes.
Skip the pre-rinse if your dishwasher gets the dishes clean without it.
Recycle the sink rinse water by using it to wash windows, floors, or the car, to flush the toilet, or to water the garden.
Choose items that have little or no packaging and that come in recyclable or refillable containers.
Reuse paper that has only been used on one side.

Hope you enjoyed my post about Green Living for DUMMIES...let me know if you wanna borrow the book;)
