5 Ways to Go Green and Save

1. Save Energy. Turn off your lifts. Unplug your appliances. Open your windows at night to let the cool air in and close your windows and drapes during the day to keep the heat out.
2. Save Water. Take shorter showers, water your plants when it’s the coolest outside so the water doesn’t evaporate as quickly, wash dishes by hand by filling up one side of the sink instead of letting the water run, and buy a reusable water bottle instead of buying bottled water (this will help reduce waste as well.)
3. Save Gas. Walk to work. Take the bus. Ride your bike. Carpool. By conserving gas, you’ll not only be saving the environment, you’ll be saving money.
4. Buy Smart. If you don’t need it, don’t buy it. If you can borrow it, do it. Not only will you be producing less waste, but you’ll be saving money while you’re at it.
5. Support companies who are making an effort to “Go Green”. Whether it is your local car dealership, your grocery store, or your favorite catering company advertising “green catering” support these companies in their efforts to help save the environment.
