61. Recycle your power tool and cell phone rechargeable batteries.
62. Donate your old computer.
Giving away your old computer can do a lot of good, too. Not only does it keep potentially hazardous materials out of landfills, it also puts a computer in the hands of someone who needs it.
63. Use a Mug.
If you’re like the average American office worker, you go through around 500 disposable cups every year. Keep a mug at your desk and use it.
64. Drink Organic.
65. Buzz Fair Trade Organic.
66. Soothe Organic.
67. Reuse your plastic bags or bring a tote to the grocery store.
It can take up to 1,000 years for plastic bags to degrade, depending on sunlight and air exposure.
68. Insulate your house by caulking and weather-striping doors and windows.
69. Close off unused areas in your home from heat and air conditioning.
70. When it gets really cold, put on a sweater before cranking up the heat.

71. Run energy star washing machines, but don’t overload them.
72. Use moderate amounts of biodegradable detergent.
73. Air-dry your laundry when possible.
74. Set energy star refrigerators to 38°F, freezers to 5°F, no colder.
75. Take the roof rack or case off your car when it’s not being used. It decreases the aeordynamics meaning you’ll use more fuel. Also empty the boot/trunk to make it lighter.
