1. Yes we recycle a lot 2. Yes most of our light bulbs are CFL 3. I am fond of walking 4. I do not use thermostats or airconditioner 5. I turn off the TV completely after watching. I actually don't watch TV too much 6. I just use tap water at room temp to wash my clothes Start Bloggings last blog post..Hang On To Your Job

Turning down your house temperature by one degree is supposed to be good for the environment, but not so good for us to keep warm

It seems nearly everyone I talk to leaves things on Standby, but my argument is modern flat TV’s go to standby when you press the on/off switch!

1. Reluctantly
2. No – hate them – really bad light
3. Walk – well hobble – obviously – tee hee
4. From what? – we don’t go mad
5. On standby – this IS something I am going to try and change
6. Low I think – I do try and avoid the washing machine as it seems to have taken a dislike to me

1. Yes
2. No
3. We don’t own a car
4. I usually keep it set at 65 or 66 in the winter (60 at night while we are asleep) – doing that for years, so no change
5. Electronics get shut off when not in use
6. Ihave no idea what a 30 setting is – I wash clothes in cold water, always have.

HI
ok here are my 5
1. oh yes … we have 4 wheely bins per household here
2. In some rooms yes but I find the light is not as strong …
3. 2 minute walk for the train and 1.5 mile walk at othe other end (it wasn’t a green decision but a conjestion one)
4. On standby I am afraid .. I need to sort that one
5. mostly 30 degrees but teens with makeup on collars does need a hotter wash

so all in all I am semi green but could definitely do better
