BE MORE GREEN
Ideas For You To Be More Green

Here are some tips for being more green in your personal life.

  • Reuse shopping bags or buy canvas bags to carry your purchases.
  • Whenever possible, skip the bag!   If you're only buying one or two items, there's no need to carry them out of the store in a big bag. 
  • Reuse gift bags and tissue paper used inside gift boxes. 
  • Wrap gifts in the comic pages, sports page, business page….any section that reflects interests of the person receiving the gift.
  • Have you been brown bagging it?  Get a reusable lunch box instead. 
  • Use newspapers instead of paper towels when cleaning glass.  It really helps get a streak free shine!
