Here are some out of the many things you can do to save our Earth

REDUCE GARBAGE

1. Precycle--buy things in packages that can be recycled or are made of materials that have already been recycled.
2. Wash, reuse, and recycle glass bottles and jars in the kitchen.
3. Instead of using paper towels, keep a cloth towel by the sink and use it to dry your hands or wipe up spills.
4. Reuse plastic bags. Wash them when they're dirty.
5. Recycle paper and cardboard items like empty cereal boxes, notepaper? newspapers, and magazines.
6. Use a lunchbox instead of a paper or plastic bag to bring your lunch to school.
7. Avoid using Styrofoam: it can't be recycled and is dangerous to animals if they eat it.
8. Donate old clothes, books, and toys to places like your local hospital, library, or Salvation Army.
9. Don't throw away cans of oil, paint, or gasoline. Save them for special garbage pickups called "toxic waste collections."

CUT BACK ON ENERGY
10 Turn out the lights when you leave a room.
11. Put on a sweater instead of training up the thermostat.
12. The next time you need to go somewhere, think twice before you ask for a ride. Walk or ride your bike whenever possible.
13. Open the fridge when you've decided what you want to eat--not while you decide.
14.Check the temperature in your fridge: it should be set between 38 [degrees]-42 [degrees] F. Any colder: it freezes food and wastes electricity.
