What’s your carbon footprint? When I checked mine, I was astounded at how large it was– 5 cubic feet more than the average. And I consider myself a pretty faithful recycler, et al.

In particular check out the resources section. My favorite tip from the series? Paying your bills online is an incredible green act. Especially if you get your bills online, you eliminate the paper of your monthly bills, the paper for checks and envelope, the petroleum to mail the bill and the payment, and you save money via postage. As the expert said– the only thing you use when paying your bill online is electrons.
