*Reduce
By reducing the consumption of items, you can reduce the feeling of clutter in and
around your home. Then, it would be less trash left to deteriorate, more money in your
pocket, and again, less stuff cluttering up your life and that’s a very good thing!

*What can any common person
do to help?*Pay attention to how you use water. Try to
drink tap water instead of bottled water so you don’t waste all that packaging. Wash your clothes n warm water when you can. Every time you brush your teeth turn off the water. Got a leaky toilet? You could be losing 200 gallons of water each day you choose not to get it fixed.

*How can we make a difference?
(cont.)*Try to keep your car in the driveway about
2 days a week. If you can walk or bike to your school, do it. If not, you can always take a mass transit bus or carpool. Try to get all of your errands done in one trip. If you can hit the post office, the grocery store, and the shoe repair place all in one trip, that’s awesome.
