Honoring the planet: Small steps in the right direction

The current climate (pun) is nudging me to be more environmentally focused. 

​Here is what I am doing these days:
​
Shortening my showers and turning down the heat
Line drying my laundry
Not running the air conditioner unless necessary
Turning off lights that I am not using
Turning off the faucet when brushing my teeth
Appreciating the beauty of nature and the importance of preserving it
Not using any pesticides—pulling up the weeds!
Being conscious of how much I drive/fly to different places and the multiple trips that I take
Recycling as many things as possible
Composting
Having a (mostly) edible yard
Buying organic/local
Using natural cleaning/laundry products 
Bringing my bags to the market
Using less toilet paper
Using Cloth Napkins  (this one is debatable)
Avoiding using paper towels (yes, I still buy)
Trying to cut back on paper usage at the office
Leaning (back) to a vegetarian diet

​Being grateful to the Earth that sustains me

I bought a bike and rode it around doing a few errands yesterday


I have a ways to go but I am trying...
