Take Action. There are many easy, money-saving changes you can make to reduce your emissions.
Green Your Spring Clean this Earth Day!
- Recycle Your Clutter - Try to reuse materials in creative ways to organize your house. If you can't find a use for your garage clutter - donate or recycle as much as you can.
- Make Your Own Cleaning Supplies - You can clean up most messes with just a few items from your pantry: baking soda, white vinegar, liquid soap and borax can be combined in ways to tackle most household messes.
- Cut the Waste - Use old newspapers to clean mirrors and glass (no streaks!) and rags instead of paper towels. You'll reduce your waste and the money you'd spend on cleaning supplies.
