As April 22nd approaches, is there something you can do to make a difference without spending more than you have? Sure!
Start Small
Start recycling! Not sure where to do that? Try Earth911 for locations. Many trash collectors make it easy by offering recycling services as well.
What about your cyber-footprint? Well, maybe that’s not a word (yet), but your website and the ones you frequent (Facebook, anyone?) use servers that produce just as much greenhouse gas as the airline industry! Look for “green” website hosting options. On Target offers hosting that is 300% wind-powered at a very reasonable $7.50 a month for unlimited storage and Email accounts. That’s a bargain you can feel good about!
Around the House
I’m pleased to have created websites for some eco-minded businesses lately. Nessco Designs of Arizona specializes in energy audits. You might enjoy their “simple solutions” page with some very affordable fixes like fixing leaky ducts or improving heating/cooling equipment efficiency, that you may be able to complete on your own. Solaris Thermal is a Maine-based company that specializes in solar solutions. You’ll find their site to be a great source of information on solar power.
