Green Giveaway Wednesday: Biodegradable Twist Sponge Cloths

• Diane St James said,

  HI !

  I’d love to win!!
  I read the recycling tips and honed in on this one.” Lower the temperature in your home (wear a sweater, use an extra blanket, etc.).” I actually turn the heat off to the entire house during the day and just use a small space heater here in my home office if I really need it. That saves me on our bill and energy!!

• Carmen said,

  Omgosh those are AWESOME, Ive never seen them before , how cool Carm

• MJ said,

  I never knew that about wood. I’ll have to check into that!

• Lorri S said,

  Wow, nice idea! We already do all the things outlined in your recycling tips

• Cathy Herard said,

  I like the idea of reading the newspaper online rather than receiving it in print. Would love to try these!

  • Dig up some of the grass in your lawn and plant native shrubs and trees instead.

  Every year I dig up more and more of my lawn to plant beds. The little grass I do have, I mow with a push mower - extra exercise and no gas usage!

• Michelle said,

  Lower the temperature in your home (wear a sweater, use an extra blanket, etc.).

  We do this now, especially at night. It helps that we have a programmable thermostat and set it to turn itself down at night and times we’re at work.

  Reuse everything that you can. Think of all of the things that you throw out during the day - this is my favorite - sets the right mindset to do what’s right for our earth!

  I like the tip about using mulch in the garden to conserve water. Thanks for a great giveaway.

• Jackie said,

  One of my favorite tips is to lower the temperature in your home (wear a sweater, use an extra blanket, etc.). We lower the temp at night and use lots of blankets. When I’m home alone in the day I lower the temp and wear my big, comfy sweatshirt and slippers.

• Carolyn G said,

  These are great. My tip is to keep a compost bin for the garden.

• Stacie said,

  Use natural cleaners rather than chemical cleansers. For example, use vinegar and water to clean your windows. (or find a Natural Cleaning Service in your area). I use vinegar and water to wash my floors.

  After reading the recycling tips I realize that while I thought I was doing a good job in that area, I found there is so much more I could be doing. One tip I found I will be starting immediately would be to complete more simple tasks by hand rather an using electrical appliances.

  The tip about using natural cleaners is a good one and something that I do in my home. It’s amazing how well vinegar and baking soda can clean, and also that it’s safe to use around my baby, who puts his mouth on everything.

• Tonya said,

  I already turn off everything all the time(my family says obsessively,hehe).I also don’t leave water running.

• kathemc said,

  “Use a battery-powered mulch mower (replacing 1/2 of all gas-powered mowers eliminates the hydrocarbon equivalent of 2 million cars!!!)” — wow! I had no idea!!

  Lower the temperature in your home (wear a sweater, use an extra blanket, etc.). we do this in our home and just wear slippers and curl up in a down blanket on the couch.

• MaryBeth I said,

  Purchase reusable, rather than disposable (towels, napkins, diapers, storage containers, etc.)

  I do this but then worry about using water, which I try to conserve on also.

  I truely believe that recycling can be a family affair and starts at home teaching your kids from a small age. My fav is “Reuse everything that you can. Think of all of the things that you throw out during the day”. I do this in my art and every day life.
  Thanks for the giveaway.
  Happy New Year,
  Kathryn
