I try to bike places instead of drive, turn of lights and AC when it's not needed, recycle of course, reuse grocerybags for other stuff around the house. Check out my website it has info on basic everyday green things you can do it's http://www.teamk4a.tk and the page you're looking for is 'make a difference'.

i walk as much as i can, i turn off lights, AC, and all electrical appliances, i put windows down in the car rather than use AC, and i bring old shopping bags to the grocery store to reuse them

I think the major thing about being "Green" that's easy and not much trouble, is opening up the house as much as possible rather than using the AC or heating, people can deal with the temperture not being completely perfect to their liking, and it will save a lot of energy overall.

I use dry erase markers to leave notes on the kids mirrors instead of paper notes. You can be colorful, creative and green. I also use old tee shirts for green shopping bags instead of plastic.They are cute, washable and the kids love still seeing their favorite tees in use.

I use "green" bags for shopping that I bought at Trader Joe's, I wear layers when it's cold, and I share a car.

We leave Going Green tips on our website www.imachanger.org. We have also set up a scholarship fund in which we asked one our recycling centers to give the customer the option of donating the proceeds from their aluminum cans to our cause.

I share showers. :D
Haha. I'm just fooling.
Use less water, for sure.
And I bike and walk. Good exercise, and good for the environment.

I choose to wear many sweaters or a thick robe so we won't have to turn the heat in our house up high. I also do simple things that everybdy is supposed to do everyday like turning out electronics that aren't in use and turning off lights, the simple stuff.
