Green Is the New Black
There's a ton of little ways to be nice to mother earth without buying birkenstocks and moving into a tent in the woods.
How to turn your work environment into a paperless experience:
_ If your work does not already recycle, inquire.
_ Bring a coffee mug and a reusable water bottle from home, to avoid using paper cups.
_ Print only if necessary. Cut down on printing by PDF'ing needed documents and keeping the files handy on your computer desktop.
_ Use both sides of the paper! Save scraps for non important print jobs. Only print on new paper if you really have to.
Outside of that, I avoid plastic bags at the checkout line by bringing cloth bags to the grocery store, or by putting my purchases in my handbag (like really who needs a bag for gum and chapstick)...and any sort of second-hand shopping is also good for the earth. So if you love thrift, you're already on the green track. :)
What do you do to stay green?
