    Hello.  We just bought a new home in CA and are currently diligently making changes to make it more ecofriendly!

      We are working through each room replacing standard light bulbs with LEDs, bought a new high efficiency washer/dryer and are replacing bathroom commodes with low water models.  It's a start :)
