I understand that being eco-friendly is not very appealing if you feel like you must deprive yourself in order to succeed at it. Sometimes, I just (feel like I) need to listen to music, play video games, or watch a movie. But surely there are more energy-efficient ways to do such things?
And so...
If you HAVE to listen to music, use an MP3 player instead of a loud CD player.
If you HAVE to play video games, use a Nintendo DS instead of your computer or X-Box.
If you HAVE to watch a movie, do it at a movie theatre or invite a friend over to share the fun.
If you HAVE to have a bath instead of a shower, use lukewarm water-- not steaming water.
If you HAVE to do unneccessary things on the Internet, use a laptop instead of a desktop (it saves energy).
How did you all do with last week's challenge, by the way?
Hi Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteI like the poem!
Re last week's challenge...I did: # 3,16,18,20,25,26,28 and 30!
Some of these I do every day already.
I'm wondering what geocache hunting is?
