I would also like to thank everyone for contributing their fave eco-tips. We got some juicy ideas over the past week. Here’s a sampling below:

Re-use plastic baggies
Keep a recycling bin by every trash can
Use cloth tp (OMG – hardcore – lol!)
Reuse glass jars (from salsa, jam, and nut butters) for everything–as drink glasses, smoothie glasses, storing nuts and grains, sprouting, and storing little things like buttons and coins
Use Onya reusable bags that fold up into the tiniest little package
Compost, and turn those scraps into nutrient-rich soil for your plants
Carry water in a stainless or glass bottle when I’m out of the house
Use 1/2 as much detergent in dishwasher and washing machine and it works just as well
Make your own cleaners with essential oils and vinegar/water mixture
Save plastic food containers to use as seed starters
Use the produce bags for picking up after your dogs and emptying the cat litterbox
Save all bits and pieces of junk, broken jewelry, milk caps etc to use for kids crafts
Feed your veggie scraps to rabbits who will turn that into usable manure PDQ
Re-use dark colored glass vitamin containers for seeds that I’ve saved in the garden
Reuse yogurt containers for my homemade yogurt- that way everyone knows what’s inside
Reuse old t shirts, yoga pants, etc as hankies
