Default Re: Reducing your carbon footprint.

I pee outside when and where I can. I'd do it anyway even if it wasn't conserving water.
I have a HUGE compost bin. We compost grass clippings and anything in the kitchen that can go out there, including Kleenexs, tea bags, coffee filters, etc.
I don't throw out tree or shrub limbs or clippings, I make a giant pile and let nature get rid of them.
I use grass clippings to carpet my garden. Good for moisture retention and weed barriers.
I raise hell about any light being on outside of room we're in, as well as any outside door being left open, or frig door for that matter.
I change the oil in our cars and take it to the recycle center.
We recycle cans, paper, cardboard, batteries, and plastics. The recycled cans go to the Youth Group at church and the rest to the county center. I don't write our name on the can bag, lots of barley pop cans in there.
We eat veggies from our garden year round and try to eat venison and fish we caught at least once a month or more.
I try to breathe as little as possible.
