Hi,

Because of Steve´s recent post I got thinking about what else we can all do (small and large) to help save the environment.

Here´s my suggestions, I hope to hear more good ideas!

• Turn OFF the computer when you are not using it
• Turn off and disconnect everything when you are not using it (including modem, printer, tv, vcr, dvd player etc)
• Walk or take the bike wherever you can instead of the car
• carpool if you have to use the car, not just for work and school but also for doing shopping
• Let your hair dry naturally whenever possible instead of using a blowdryer
• Use electricity saving light bulbs
• Open windows in the morning and evenings instead of having the airco on.
• Turn off the Airco/Heating when you are not at home
• Don´t let the water run while brusing your teeth
• Turn off lights in rooms you are not in
• Use water saving toilets (or use the small flush whenever possible)
• Put on another sweather in winter or fall so you can turn the heating down a bit
• Have solar panels (at least for your warm water)
• Cut vegetables yourself whenever possible instead of using a machine
