These are some things the Mobleys have done to make their environment a greener place.
1. Turn off lights when we leave a room.
2. Make our own household cleaner from non-toxic substances (vinegar, baking soda, etc.)
3. Draw on the back side of paper that mom brings home from work rather than a new sheet of paper.
4. Drink out of our reusable nalgene and stainless steel water bottles.
5. Recycle everything that can be recycled instead of thrown away (bottles, cans, newspaper, etc.)
6. Take reusable canvas bags to the grocery store.
7. Use old socks, towels and washcloths as rags.
8. We donate old clothes, toys, etc. to Goodwill so they can be reused.
9. We make compost from our discarded veggies and fruits for our garden.
10. We all bring our lunch to school/work in reusable bags.
11. Unplug appliances that are not being used.
12. Use a battery-powered lawn mower instead of gas powered.

These are some things Riley has done to make his environment a greener place.
1. Plant more trees/plants. Also, every time I break a wooden board I will plant a tree, so we don’t reduce
2. I try to use scrap paper to reduce paper waste.
3. I always turn the water off when I brush my teeth and never leave it running continuously.
4. I am trying not to use the heater so much.
5. I am recycling aluminum cans, plastic bottles, paper, etc.
6. I usually use a portable iPod player, one that’s doesn’t use batteries or doesn’t plug-in, except when I need a plug-in or battery one for tournaments.
7. I try to unplug any unnecessary electronics.

These are some things the Woodwards have done to make their environment a greener place.
We bought small towels to use when we eat instead of using paper towels or napkins.
We wash our ziplock bags and re-use them.
We no longer use the heat dry function on the dish washer.
We bought a "Go Green" lawn mower and cant wait to start using it.
We unplug everything when not in use.
We recycle what we can (soda cans , paper , plastic).
We bought canvas bags to use when we go shopping.
We do not liter and pick up liter when we see it.
Did You Know: If you park your car in the shade, it reduces the amount of gas evaporated into the atmosphere, so park in the shade when possible even if you have to walk farther by doing so.
