I saw the following tips from New York City’s GreeNYC campaign to be an environmentally friendly city. Even though I don’t live in New York, still we can follow these tips.

1. Switch to ENERGY STAR® qualified Compact Fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs).

2. Buy ENERGY STAR® appliances.

3. Don’t air condition an empty room

4. Unplug chargers and appliances when not in use.

5. Switch to a green energy provider.

6. Walk, bike or take public transportation.

7. Recycle your glass, metal, paper and plastic.

8. Bring your own cloth bag to the grocery store.

9. Use green cleaning products.

10. Switch to paperless bank statements and online bill paying.

Do you follow these steps?
