• Wash only full loads of dishes and clothes.
• Air dry dishes or clothes instead of using an appliance.
• Start using warm/cold (or cold/cold) cycle instead of hot/hot when washing clothes.
• Clean the lint filter in the dryer after every load to improve air circulation.

• Switch to a fuel-efficient car such as a hybrid.
• Carpool whenever possible.
• Walk or ride a bicycle instead of taking a car.
• Drive sensibly. Aggressive driving wastes gasoline.
• Get regular tune-ups for the family car and keep tires fully inflated.

• Limit air travel unless it’s necessary.
• Take mass transit whenever possible.
• Rather than traveling, use webcams to stay connected with friends and family who live far away.
• Seek out and support local farmers markets – because local food has traveled less to get to you.
