Description:
I have started by reducing my time in my vehicle to trip to and from work. This has reduced my fuel consumption and lowered the amount of emissions my vehicle puts out. When I can afford it. I plan to buy a hybrid or electric vehicle. At home I have changed all the light bulbs to the energy effient bulbs, adjust the thermometer to use less HVAC, and reduced my water consumption inside the home. I would like to install a water recovery system to use the water that comes from the sink and shower to fill the toilet. Outside I have planted plants to not only add beauty to my landscape, but to cut down on moisture loss, errossion, and to help insulate my home. My neighbors and I have a shared garden that we grow a variety of vegetables and fruits which helps us with our grocery cost and insures us of what is in our produce.
