Contrary to what Kermit says, It is easy being Green

First this is one of my favourite songs:

Maybe it isn’t as easy as I make it out to be, but in honour of today’s SciHealth Theme day, which is being Green, here are some of the easiest ways to be Green(er):

  1. Recycle
  2. Use compact florescent bulbs
  3. Turn off lights (even ones with CF bulbs) when not in use
  4. Unplug cell phones, etc when they are done charging (they are still drawing current)
  5. Use low-flow shower heads and sink aerators
  6. Turn down your water heater
  7. Change the oil in your car
  8. Keep your tires inflated (yep this really does help to save fuel)
  9. Walk/Bike more - drive less
  10. By used from thrift stores (less in the landfills, saves manufacturing resources)
  11. Compost (if you can)

See that’s not so hard.  It can be easy to be green.

    Okay, I’m glad you posted that there was a theme day going on - -I’ve been channel surfing tonight to break out of my channel bubble and all I see is green this and green that. I was starting to think it was some new earth day I was missing. I like the song Rainbow Connection best. On an odd note this is the second Kermit based post I’ve seen tonight at b5; Junk Creations has one too. Maybe I should do a Kermit post too. Hmmmm,

    Good easy green tips for a starting point :)
