Earth Day - Green Tips

Today is Earth Day; a time to unite around new actions. Earth Day is meant to focus awareness of and appreciation for the Earth's environment. It's a time  to celebrate gains we have made and create new visions to accelerate environmental progress.


I read this article that offers a lot of really great and practical tips on things like opting for filtered water instead of bottled, using a reusable water bottle, and getting magazines online. It even has some info on saving money, listing places you can swap CDs, DVDs, books and video games. Plus how and even where you can actually  recycle your old electronic items for cash ... something most of us in these economic times could definitely use! 


Would you or have you done any of these things? Any frugal tips for going green you want to share?

I use the eco friendly bulbs in all my lights.
