• Most objects in your home can be recycled. Recycle anything that you can. Find out about recycling programs. If there aren't any start one! Want some extra cash? Many states will pay you for recycling cans and other objects.
• Turn things off! Just by turning off a light or other appliance you can save the environment AND you will save money on your electric bill!
• Drive less! Walk, ride your bike or carpool. This will help the environment and put a little extra
  cash in your pocket from savings on gas.
• Save electricity. When needed, set the appropriate temperatures for your heater and air-condition. Do not turn on lights during the day. However if you have to, make sure you turn them off when you are finished. At night, do not turn on a lot of lights, but turn on the lights of the room you are in.
• Save water. When you are brushing your teeth, don't let the water run. When you are ready to rinse, go ahead and turn on the water, and do your job. If you have to get rid of water after using the kitchen faucet, pour them on plants.
• Reuse plastic bags. Plastic bags can be used for the garbage cans in the kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms. Not only do you save money, but you are reusing it again.
• Recycle plastic bags. If you are not into reusing plastic bags, certain stores may have a recycling bin for bags.
• Recycle newspapers, cardboards, plastic bottles. In many towns and cities, waste management designates weekly a recycle pickup.
• Recycle aluminum. You can earn cash as you recycle them.
• Carpool. If you must commute, see if other colleagues, neighbors, friends or family are willing to carpool. There are a few advantages of doing this. You will save on gas, money and preserving your vehicle.
• Walk. If you live near grocery stores or your work, walk to your destination. Your exercise helps save the environment.
• Plant trees, shrubs and flowers, they are needed. Beautifying the yards, parks, and other areas, is satisfying mentally and physically. By having trees, shrubs and flowers, we are adding more oxygen into the air, creating more shade space, and beautifying the areas. This also attracts some wildlife to the area.
• Protect animals. Prevent cruelty to animals. Animals have the right to live in the natural habitat.
