1. We are planning a compost pile. Since we are renting we were concerned, but we figured it out.
2. We use
Shaklee cleaners that do not add water. This uses less bottle waste and all bottles are recycleable.
3. I am interested in conserving rain water for the garden. We've been watching "Living With Ed" on HGTV and thought the rain barrell thing was genius. Our problem is living in SoCal we don't get a ton of rain...BUT, our neighbor's sprinklers come over into our yard and water stuff...just not thoroughly. So I've adjusted our sprinklers in regard to their usage and I may place barrells to collect their water. Ha ha. If their going to pay for the water to water our yard, I might as well take advantage.
4. Freecycle
5. Use cloth when possible. We use microfiber when cleaning, cloth dipes, cloth pads, etc.
