Going green saves resources and money

I know, I know, you’re hearing about the green movement everywhere, and it’s even more prevalent now that the gas prices have risen sky-high. You want to do your part, but sometimes it’s tough to know where to start.

You want to start where it will do the most good and save you the most money, right? Green Home has put together a table that can help you figure out the best ways for you to go green.

I’m concerned about gasoline right now, as I drive a (smallish) SUV — my next car is a hybrid, I promise! I was pleasantly surprised to find out that I could save by $2000.00 by the next five years whether I just drive more slowly (under 60 m.p.h). Tell that to my lead foot, next join me after the break for more

green money-saving tips.

Some other tips from Green Home that surprised me:

  • Waterless car wash exists, is cheap, and saves about 100 gallons of water with each washing.
  • Taking your bike rack off your car when you aren’t using it can save you about $30 a year.
  • Don’t forget to clean the lint trap in your dryer. That dryer fuzz is costing you about $34 a year.

Visit Green Home to read the organized chart that shows more resources, along with the bucks you’ll be saving by making the green choice.
