Happy Earth Day!

Here's a random list of ways that I try to be green every day.

I telecommute. A lot of work I do is done 'remotely' or online as much as I can.
I carpool as much as possible.
I drive an old car. There are significant environmental costs to both manufacturing a new automobile and adding your old car to the ever-growing collective junk heap.
I do a lot of walking.
I recycle. Cans, paper, bottles, computers, electronics, water, etc.
I use solar energy (directly from sunlight) to charge my every day batteries that power my portable electronics, cell phone, laptop, and lights in my computer room.
I turn off lights when the room isn't being occupied.
I switched to high efficiency fluorescent tubes and LED lights.
My servers are on a timed schedule and power down when unused for a long period of time.
I vote for energy star rated efficiency products when I make my purchases.
My web-server is completely powered by solar and wind energy.
I use the dark google.
I use rechargeable batteries instead of disposables for almost everything except a watch or two, and those last for years before they need to be replaced.
I take short showers.
I eat home grown vegetables and fruits.
I unplug AC adapters when the electronics won't be used for a while.
I put on an extra layer when it gets cold at home vs using a heater.
I try to pass out virtual contact/business cards vs paper cards.
I don't ask for a receipt at starbucks.
I mulch my grass clippings to use as fertilizer.
I pay with e-bills and use virtual statements.
I use re-usable water bottles made of aluminum, which itself is completely recyclable.
I refurbish old computers.
I re-use my plastic bags.
