Ready, Set, Go Green in 2021!

A new calendar year is an opportune time to start new eco-friendly habits. Let’s resolve to go greener in 2021!

Be a more responsible resident of the planet as you kick off the new year:

• subscribe to paperless billing and statements
• switch to online newspapers and magazines
• pay bills online
• ditch the plastic water bottles
• buy detergents in pod form
• research places to properly recycle “difficult” items like electronics, batteries, #6 plastic, Styrofoam and prescription drugs
• start composting
• learn about places you can purchase sustainably produced clothing
• vow to consider energy efficiency when buying new items
• conduct a home energy-efficiency audit
• landscape your yard with water conservation in mind
• determine ways you can incorporate public transportation, walking or cycling into your routine
• cultivate a minimalist approach to consumer purchases
• plant a vegetable garden
• investigate recipes for DIY household and/or personal care products
• eat more organic and non-GMO food
• familiarize yourself with items that are made from recycled material
