Friday Morning at our MOPS meeting
*Turn your thermostat down just one degree in the winter and up one degree in the summer! ( I have already done ours by 2 degrees)
* Reduce your showers to 3-5minutes (this will be hard for me but I am trying to just reduce some for now) A 10 minute shower uses 50 gallons of water
*Small baths
*Wear your jeans one extra time before washing
*Use less paper products and plastic bags
*Be aware of fruits and veggies which contain the most pesticides and would be more beneficial to but organic than others (Peach being the highest and Onions being the least)
Can I encourage you to Go More Green for YOU, YOUR FAMILY And OUR Mother Earth??? I will be keeping you posted on our list...
Sara Snow was our guest speaker. I was completely inspired by her short lecture! Now if I only had all the time and money to make all the changes I wish I could immediately!!!
I have ordered her book Fresh Living and hope to take many ideas to help my family and our earth for the better!!!
Here are just a few ideas that are simple changes that we can all do...I have also started to compile a list that I hope within the next year I can accomplish. I hope to share this list with you as I am able to check some off...
