Top Ten Green Resolutions

According to Green Daily this is what you can do for the planet:

1. Buy less stuff.
2. Do not throw it away. Find new uses for the old.
3. Eat local. Whenever possible, purchase food from local farmers and vendors.
4. Drive less. Look into public transportation in your area. Drive less by consolidating trips.
5. Change those light bulbs. Compact fluorescent light bulbs save energy and money.
6. Use non-toxic household cleaners. Not only does it save money, non-toxic household cleaners prevent over-exposure to noxious chemicals.
7. Go organic. For lawn and garden care, avoid chemical pesticides. A healthy lawn and garden are pest resistant. There are natural alternatives to fighting those pesky pests.
8. Use less water.
9. Stop buying plastic bottled water. Invest in a reusable water bottle.
10. Go homemade and handmade. In January, ask friends and family if they are as interested as you are in going crafty this coming year for the next holiday gift giving season.
