How Going Green Can Save You Money
Published: 10/01/2010
As the planet faces a period of warming where our actions are believed to be the prime cause, it makes sense to seek out examples of how going green saves you money and act on them.
That cell phone charger that stays plugged in, the DVD player that waits for the occasional playing, and the TV that sits on standby all night, these are prime examples of how going green can save you money - if you unplug them, that is. For even if the items are not working, they are consuming energy!
Another of the prime examples of how going green can save you money is switching from bottled water to filtered tap water. The average family spends in excess of $1,000 a year on bottled water. And the worst part is that 95% of the plastic bottles are not recycled! For less than $100 you could get a high quality staged water filter to make your tap water perfect.
Examples of how going green can save you money are everywhere. Do you drive as fast as the law allows? Car engines perform most efficiently at around 55 miles an hour. In Bermuda though if you drive at the speed limit on properly inflated tires, you will save money and help the planet too. Bermuda is so small; why not use a motorcycle instead of the car.
Of course, you could always use a bicycle to travel around town also. Or you could simply walk for those short trips. You won’t be pouring hydrocarbons into the atmosphere, warming the planet, you will save money, and you will get some good exercise at the same time. Walking and cycling when you can are excellent examples of how going green can save you money.
Some 65 million newspapers are printed every day in the US. Some 70% of them will not be recycled. What a waste of trees! You can do your bit to help, and read whatever news you want to read at the same time simply by going online. Very few newspapers don’t have an online presence these days, so save some money and read from the web pages. This goes for the yellow pages too.
Do you want more examples of how going green can save you money? Just look around and you certainly will find them.
