3 Easy Steps To Save the Earth and Your Wallet

Enviromental conservation has been all the rave the last couple years. Huge corporations are moving to greener office environments, families are turning last nights dinner into tomorrows compost, it seems like everyone is going green.  Feeling blue that you are left out of the green?

  • Beef its NOT whats for dinner:
    Try going vegetarian one day a week. If you factor in the energy to raise the cattle and transport the meat It takes 2,500 gallons of water to produce 1 pound of beef.  That is 40 times more water than is used to produce 1 pound of potatoes.
  • Save the water:
    When brushing your teeth, washing your face, or shaving don’t let the water run. You can save 150 gallons of water month or 1,800 gallons a year!
  • Grow it yourself:
    Starting a garden only costs a couple packets of seeds and some garden tools. Not only will you be saving money and having he freshest veggies you’ll be cutting down a trip to the grocery store and the packaging material that comes with your fruits and vegetables.
