save the environment

I’m doing my weekly trip down to the recycling point this morning. I also bought some cotton carrier bags yesterday, well only two but it’s a start. Also our new washing machine arrived this week which has an eco cycle on it which I have been using great.

As we have just moved it’s taken me a while to start this goal. The first things I have done is to recycle more, this is quite easy to do as theres a recycling point at the top of the road. There I can recycle plastic, glass, magazines and newspapers, cardboard, cans, clothes and even food cartons. I’m also switching all our light bulbs to energy sufficent ones and turning off everything by the plug when not in use. also when our baby is born I will be using natural nappies instead of the disposables ones.

This now leads me to the list of things that I need to do:
1. Get reuseable bags for the shopping
2. When I pass my test and able to buy a car it will be a hybrid
3. Change all bills to online billing so I don’t use the extra paper

I’m sure there will be more things to add at a later date.
