MAKE SIMPLE LIFESTYLE CHANGES BY TAKING ACTION:

§  Ditch single-use plastics for reusable items. Reusable shopping and produce bags are a great start.  Decline plastic cutlery and straws on take-out orders.  Forgo bottled drinking water and carry a refillable bottle with you.  There’s a style and price point suitable for everybody!

§  Join the meatless Monday movement. Delicious and flavorful plant-based dishes can be a great source of protein and nutrients without the consequence of greenhouse gas emissions. Looking for recipes?  Check out: https://www.mondaycampaigns.org/meatless-monday/recipes

§  Go green!  Consider switching to green energy to power your home. Many power companies offer this option. We made the switch: link to our green page on green energy credits.

§  Lights off!  Reduce wasted energy and save money by turning off lights when you leave a room.  To calculate your savings, take the watt rating on the bulb and divide it by 1000.  This gives you kilowatt hours or kWh.  Use your most recent electric bill to find how much you are charged per kilowatt hour, and then multiple that price by the number of kilowatt hours.  Switching to energy efficient light bulbs will help save energy and money as well.

§  Decrease the amount of lawn you have to maintain by increasing the amount of garden beds.  Pollinators and wildlife in general need us to provide the ecosystem services they rely on.  Native plants bring both beauty and function to a garden.  Don’t forget – the air we breathe is courtesy of the plants around us.  Less lawn equates to less chemicals along with less noise and air pollution from mowers, trimmers and blowers.
