My Non-Green Habits
Author: preeti13 Apr
1. Using paper towel in my kitchen. It is so convenient and feels clean. I just cannot get myself to use cloth. Will composting the used towels make me feel better? (Note to myself – Buy composting bins by this weekend)
2. Using gas powered mower. I am thinking about buying an electric one. I don’t think I can make a transition to a push mower.
3. Let the water run till it gets cold to fill up a glass of water to drink. I do manage to fill up water in a jug so I don’t waste water; but it only lasts for a week and I am back to square one.
4. Use dryer to dry clothes even in summer.
I am planning to keep adding to this list as and when I remember and I hope I can cross off some items in future

my list
a) Showering everyday
b) Flushing every time - i think i’ll flush once every night
:*
Cut down two minutes from shower time everyday, that could help save 8-10 gallons.
Throw another jug under the tap before turning it on. While you wait for cold water, you can collect water for your indoor plants.
I am not sure about my non-green habits. Using a dishwasher is apparently more green than washing in the sink. But if you have to rinse before stacking the dishwasher, is it still a green practice? Nevertheless, I use a dishwasher, for the convenience.
We all have non-green habits, don’t we? I think it’s better not to feel guilty about these things and keep the whole greening process less of a burden and more of a pleasure.
Although I have to say, showering every day and flushing every time–when I hear such things it just make me angry!:-)
i anyway take two minute showers
True. Now i just need to get a lot of house plants
Hey preeti nice blog you have here. See you have started blogging recently, welcome :).
Turn off the tap while you brush your teeth and turn it back on to rinse. Switch over to CFLs. Turn off the lights in rooms not being used. Man the list can go on.
Thanks Archana. Did you know CFL have mercury? so, when they break you have to be careful.
