Going Green...
Everyone is always asking how to go green, so here is what you have to do to help out, and really it's easy, and most of it saves you a LOT of cash!

An average family can save 400kg of CO2 a year
Pull The Plug: If you leave your chargers in the wall after they have finished charging, it consumes a huge amount of energy.
An average family can save 7kg of CO2 a year
Try Not To Fly: Obviously, flying takes a lot of cash, and a lot of energy, you'd probably be better off drving. and even better, don't travel to far away at all.
An average family can save 700kg of CO2 a year and a suitcase full of cash
Buy Better Bulbs: These new energy-star rated bulbs are brighter and run on a third the amount of energy!
An average family can save 200kg of CO2 a year
Insulate: Insulate your loft space, cavity walls, hot water pipes or boiler. Draught-proof your doors, windows, letterbox or cat flap. Keep your home a little warmer and your planet a little cooler.

Other Things You Can Do To Help
(Not things to "Go green")
Boycotting...
Call your favorite Privately owned restaurant, explain to them the advantages of biodegradable take-out boxes, and their small if any price changes. Tell them that you will boycott their restaurant, and so will your friends, until they switch to Biodegradable Styrofoam Boxes. Also, explain to them that it will attract more customers if their restaurant(s) will go green. Give them my contact information if they decide to make the switch, to Earth Shells Biodegradable products.
Recycle!
The best way to help is to simply recycle!
Here are several website listing things you can recycle to help the environment, and other people too.

Recycling Schools!
Many of your schools have started recycling paper! The next project is plastic, most people's problems with recycling plastic is you have no idea where to turn it in. Suggest that your school gets a plastic recycling bin as well as your paper one. Save up your plastic's from lunch and turn your plastic's in from home!
