It may seem like a lot of work in order to help out our environment. But the little things we do that can make an impact. For example we can use reusable bags for our groceries. Make sure you use cleaning products that are organic and does not contain and toxic. It is safer for yourself and your children. Recycle your old paper and plastics. These little things can does really help save our resources and help the environment.
Go green and stop junk mail is a concept from a company called GreenDimes that was started in 2006, since then almost 4 million pounds of junk mail has been stopped. The number keeps growing daily as more people become aware of the benefits of their service. They have been featured on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, CNN, New York Times and other media publications.

There is also another great benefit with this service as well. We probably have all heard about identity theft, a problem that unfortunately some people go through. Some suffer great financial loss or have their identity used for something illegal. How is it possible for thieves to steal your identity? "Dumpster diving", it is a way to get personal information used by thieves by literally going through your garbage and looking for credit card application or personal letter and whatever else they can find that has your personal information. For example, they can easily sign up for credit card offer that has been sent to you and threw away. By filling up the application and using it to purchase stuff leaving you with the financial burden.

Go Green
I had no idea what this meant. Am I the only one? I can't be! Tips: Conserve your H2O! Don't leave your water running when you brush your Teeth. Cut your showers in half. Compost is easier than you think. If you have an outdoor compost pile make sure you are feeding it! Egg shells and fruit peels are great for your compost because it feed the worms. WORMS are the key to turning around your waste into rich dirt you can reuse. You can do indoor compost as well- just make sure you have a lid with air holes for the worms and so the compose itself can "breath". Mulch your fallen branches and reuse the debris for landscaping. Leave your lawn clippings on your lawn! Reduce waste and feed your lawn! Unplug electrical things that you are not using from your outlets. Change your light bulbs to energy efficient ones! These are small changes that can go a LONG way! Try them out! I'm still learning about Going Green! I'm no expert so if anyone else has great tips or suggestions please leave a comment for everyone to read!
