Going green is good for the environment and doesn’t have to be hard on your wallet. In this blog, we explore simple ways to go green and save money.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle – there are several ways to reduce your consumption and recycle what you use, which can lower your energy use and expenses. Here are a few examples:
Limit purchases to mostly only what you need
Borrow items, especially for one-use projects
Utilize the library instead of purchasing items like books or movies
Avoid disposable products like paper napkins and plastic baggies
Assess your energy use – an excellent way to understand where your home or business may need tweaks for energy efficiency is to perform an energy audit. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has a convenient calculator which can show you the impact of energy efficiency on your carbon footprint.
