House: Green idea #1

So we figured it'd be fun if we shared some of the things we came up with to "go green."

We're trying to come up with ways to green-ify our life. So, for instance, to cut down on paper-towel use at work, Matt now brings a hand towel. Let's take a quick look at how much paper this saves:

• 1 foot of paper toweling per bathroom trip
• 5 bathroom trips per day
• 25 bathroom trips per week
• 50 work-weeks a year
• All that adds up to about 1,750 feet of paper toweling saved just by bringing a hand towel to work.

So that's our first green idea. Be sure to post in the comments the creative ways you "go green" in your daily lives.
