 | Your body is about 70 percent water. The planet is about 70 percent water. The more high-water-content foods you can ingest—even up to 70 percent overall—the healthier you’re likely to be. (Don’t take our word for it—be sure and check in with yourself—no one knows you better than you!—and your doctor.) |
Eat Water!
Cool Down
by Rachel
 | Bring down the temperature in your house, it saves money and uses less power. If you get cold grab a blanket or put on a sweater or a coat! |
Plastic bags
by Toni Mogensen
| You now the drill:pack you lunch put all your lunch foods each in individual plastic throw-away bags.Well what you should really do is spend an extra buck or so and buy the more expensive and sturdy bags that will last longer. Then when you are at lunch and you are finished with your meal DON'T THROW AWAY YOUR BAGS!!!!Empty out the crumbs and put the bag back into your luch box(make sure you lunch box is reuseable.)when you get home rinse out the plastic bag, and if you think its necissary flip your bag inside-out and pace it over a bottle or can that you are going to recycle to let it dry.Then,once dry, flip the bag right side in again and pack yourself a green lunch to enjoy tomorrow. |
Brrrrrrr!
by Linda and Tosh
| Why are so many stores, restaurants, and movie theaters so dang cold? Have you ever forgotten to bring a sweater to the movies and sat shivering the whole time? If you don’t speak up, why would they change? Start by asking nicely, and then think about writing a few letters to the home office if that doesn’t help. |
Hand-me-downs
by Carlisle
| When your old clothes don't fit you any more, give them to younger siblings or friends that are smaller than you. |
Being Green IS Fun!!
by Allie D.
| The next time you and your friends decide to hang out together, don't drive to the Mall! How about trying something new, like riding your bikes to the local park. Even just being outside and playing or talking with your friends is relaxing! If you just HAVE to go to the Mall, then have everyone go in the same car to reduce your carbon footprint! See? Having fun and being green is a no-brainer!!! :D |
Make it a Game
by Linda and Tosh
| Organize a “Ride Your Bike to School” day for your school, and have a blast as you hand out prizes for the most creative entries (you just might see big wheels and children’s bikes in the mix). |
Recycled clothes
by Nicole
| You can get really cute (and comfortable) clothes that are recycled, hand-me-downs and used clothes. And of course don't forget to use your recycled bag. My favorite outfit is a 100% recycled cotton jeans, a recycled cotton tee (that supports WWF) and my recycled plastic bottle bag. Living green is easy if you make it! |
