  • Just don't fart, and go into hibernation mode. It helps remove the carbon footprint.
  • Eat a PB&J!

    Eating lower on the food chain saves greenhouse gas emissions, water, land, pollution. You don't have to go whole hog (cold tofurkey?) - each time you decide what to eat is a chance to help the planet, just like each time you have to change the oil in your car.

  • Number 3 is ludicrous and cruel. Read The United Nation"s Livestock's Longshadow. Speaking of turds, what about the overpopulation of humans and the animals they routinely murder for food.
  • Eat more pasties - a whole meal in one - less energy to cook and no washing up.
  • Part of Number 4 confuses me. Not the showering part, that's pretty obvious.

    The part about doing lighter loads of laundry. If as you say, don't wash your clothes as often, that's understandable, but how would washing less clothes at one time. That sounds counter-intuitive.

    If you really want to help with water usage, follow this rule of toilet flushes:
    If it's yellow let it mellow,
    If it's brown flush it down.
  • this is noy helpful for the kids
  • Thanks for the tips. I need to start following point 3 because I really like long showers.
  • This is LAME!!!!! you cant just stop mowing your lawn, or stop taking showers for God's sake!!!!! find other ways to help the environment!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Scientists worldwide are declaring that Global Warming is just a myth. There's in fact a cycle. In 1970s, it was so cold that people in England thought they were moving into the ice age. The hottest the earth got to experienced was back in Dec 07.
  • Interesting ways to help the environment. More people should do the above.
  • Nice tips. If everybody plays their part, the earth will be a better place to live in.
