FOOD. Buy local products, and reduce your meat intake.

ELECTRICITY. Regulate thermostats, turn off lights when not in use, use energy-efficient light bulbs and rechargeable batteries.

RECYCLE. Avoid using plastic bags, and separate waste to help conserve natural resources.

PAPER. Avoid printing, and if you do print, use recycled paper! Use documents and tools online. Modify documents (reduce the text size and print in black and white). You're sure to save a tree!

CONSUMPTION. Buy less, share more. Give away what you no longer use, and trade games and books.

NATURE. Plant trees, grow plants or collect litter...
