Answer 4

I recycle, I changed my lightbulbs to CFLs, I keep all of my plugs and chargers on a powerstrip and turn it off when it's not in use, I bring my own bags to the grocery store, bike/walk instead of driving, I don't eat meat, I try to wash the dishes quickly and with as little water as possible and I don't leave my AC on 24/7 in the summer! Thats a pet peeve of mine. I'm currently trying to cut styrofoam out of my life completely, which is a bit harder than I thought it would be.
