Re: Reducing your carbon footprint.
In the last two years, we have really gotten into recycling.
We went from barely being able to fit our trash into the can every week, to having to ask for an additional recycling bin (since they only pick up recycling once every two weeks.)
Also, we try to take our own bags to the grocery store, instead of using plastic bags.
I've also replaced almost all of our lights with CFL bulbs. Except in the baby's room where I have a dimmer.
We do a pretty big Christmas light display every year, so I am only adding LED lights. No more incandescent. That's partially because my house can't handle much more.
I am guilty of driving a SUV, though.

Reason: Just realized we've been recycling for around 2 years
