Green Resolutions for the New Year

I don't make New Year's Resoultions anymore that pertain to losing weight or getting better organized - but I do make Green Resolutions;  promises to myself to do better at maintaining my health, the health of my family, and the health of our shared planet. Here are my resolutions for this year:

• Turn off all WIFI at home when computers are not in use
• Only talk on my cell phone with a wired headset (or on speaker phone)
• Banish cordless phones in our home
• Only replace items in our home with items that are used and off-gassed or new and eco-friendly
• Stop using disposable produce bags at the grocery store and remember to bring my cotton bags
• Shop more in bulk - and always bring my own containers or bags
• Buy butter that comes from grass-fed cows only
• Meatless meals twice a week and only 1 serving of meat all other days
• Avoid soy and soy lecithen in all products - with the exception of non-GMO organic edamame
• Bike to school with my kids once a week
• Take my kids to school on the City Bus once a week - and then walk or jog home
• Don't drive at all one day a week
• Start composting - even though we live in a townhouse
• Take my kids hiking and camping
• Plant a mobil veggie garden on our patio
• Buy less, consume less, share more
