I saw this on Cloxx’s list and decided that I too could have set actions to do

Things I already do:
Participate on free rice,
Recycle,
Drink tap water,
I have reduced my showers from about 45 mins to less than 10 (some days it is 2mins others 8-9 depends on hair washing etc)
Decline plastic bags wherever possible,
Use energy saving bulbs,
Give blood,
Turn off the tap whilst you brushing your teeth (I use Neways toothpaste that doesn’t use water)
Don’t overfill my kettle,
Recycle my specs -ha ha specs? Glasses sent to third world country,
Use a biro from start to finish (I ALWAYS use my pens to the death, even then I struggle to throw them away, all those empty pen cases in our environment!!!)

Things I want to do:
Fit the rest of the house with energy saving bulbs,
Get in the habit of turning ALL appliances off at the mains,
Start eating at the table with flattie, friends etc,
Shop at the farmers market more often,
Use both sides of every piece of paper (hmm I NEED to watch my paper consumption),
Calculate my carbon footprint,
Buy a refillable pen and only use that,
Choose to do business with only ethical businesses,
Join the public library and use it on a regular basis,
