What are YOU doing for the environment?

Just post what you're doing for the environment! It could be anything from Walking instead of driving to not driving at all! I'm taking the train to my grandparent's for thanksgiving instead of driving. What about YOU?
EDIT: Here is a link for amtrak, a cross country train service for most of America and About 1/2 of Canada. This keeps you from wasting gas by driving to you're destinations, and takes the hassle out of traveling. Please check it out! www.amtrak.com

Re: What are YOU doing for the environment?

My dad's car runs on discarded fast-food grease.

I don't eat enough to make me fat so I don't need to waste electricity by buying a treadmill/etc.

Find someone post count. Click posts under username. Find number of pages. Times that by 40 for min and 60 for max and you have a rough estimate of post count.

You're homeschooled?

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Finally another homeschooler on Scratch!
....................................
My family does a lot of recycling, and my Dad takes the train to work. We're waiting for a local dairy to open up; it would save some gasoline because we could ride our bicycles to it and bring back some stuff. But yes, a local dairy isn't enough.

Besides that, we try and be careful on what we do.  smile

I fall: It's a tragedy. You fall: It's comedy.
Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Re: What are YOU doing for the environment?

Sometimes I rescue cans that will be thrown in the trash and take them home to recycle.

Re: What are YOU doing for the environment?

I have the gut to argue with my dad over recycling and he's wasting stuff that can be recycled and stuff that 'nature's recyclers' can use.  sad  Always lose

At my mom's house, we recycle quite a lot, and she's thinking of a compost pile.

Dunno if that's much.  tongue

Re: What are YOU doing for the environment?

This is great, everybody!
I took the train to my grandparents who live 600 miles away, like I said. The train is also alot beter than driving! I'm going to post a link in the first post for the amtrak website. Then, we can all save gas, and be able to walk instead of being straped up all the time!

I want that too, but there would be no life if we just let Earth die. So we should all do something, even if it's just using electronics less often.

I recycle. I walk to school every day. I'm trying to be better about using electronics less.

Now only using this account to post in Miscellaneous, but when Miss_Webgal becomes a Scratcher I'm ditching this account.
