I sent a series of small tips, thought-provoking items through Twitter on Earth Day last Thursday. So now, I want to list these all here in case you do not follow me on Twitter.
Eat as locally as you can. Better for you and better for our environment. You can read more about my thoughts on eating locally in my guest post at The Kitchen Witch.
Do you compost? http://www.howtocompost.org http://www.composting101.com/
Candlelight is mood setting and energy saving. Eat dinner by candlelight once a week.

It doesn’t take much energy for you to walk back into that room you just left and turn the lights out.
Is it really easier to keep that charger plugged in without the laptop/cell phone/fill in the blank charging?
What does it cost you to walk to the grocery store (if possible) rather than drive?
If you put a cup under the faucet, how much water do you use to brush your teeth? Wash your face?
