Going Green = Saving Green!

Recently in my Biology class we figured out our family carbon footprint... I was MORTIFIED! So another goal I've set for myself and my family is to become more green while saving $$!




Here are a few of the changes we are making:



I will be cloth diapering our new baby! This will be very new to us but I am excited to save a lot of money from our monthly expenses. (And of course I got these awesome BG 4.0's on sale!)


Reuseable bags! I'm sure everyone knows about these, but I like most others always seem to forget them when I go shopping. I want to get myself in the habit of always bringing them! Not only is it better for the enviroment, you can carry so much more, and some stores even give you a discount for using them! *Make sure you wash them consistently!!!*

Also, as I said before we are planting a vegetable/fruit garden, not only eating healthy but saving $$ on produce!


Have any other ideas, please share them here!
