    Waste Go Paperless
    Reducing your paper mail can be such a freeing action to take -- by reducing what is coming in, you can reduce what is going into the recycling bin too. How does it make you feel? What is the next step you will take to reduce your waste?

    Reducing paper mail is a good way to reduce paper clutter in my home as well. And next step would be to pay online those billings.

    Your utility company is able to tell you your average energy usage. Ask them how your energy usage compares to others in your ZIP code, region, and/or state. What other steps can you take each day to reduce your electricity usage?

    Reuse, recycle those plastic bags. Small plastic bags can be use well for small wet trash.

    Conserve water. HP should promote waterless urinals. At home, use a pail and water bucket in toilets.
