Because being green doesn't have to stop at your shower.

reduce

Lower your energy consumption by turning off lights, buying Energy Star approved appliances, and switching your light bulbs to compact fluorescent bulbs. Become less dependent on fossil fuels by biking, walking or carpooling.

reuse

Use your bath junkie tote at the grocery store, the mall, the library. Heck, don't let it leave your side. An estimated 500 billion to one trillion plastic bags are used each year. That's about a million a minute, and billions of bags end up in landfills.

recycle

As 5% of the population, Americans generate 40% of the world's waste. Recycle all that you can. If we recycled all of our newspapers, it would save 250 million trees each year! Find out where your nearest recycling center is, and if they pick up in your community.

renew

rot

Consider composting. Every year, Americans throw out 1.200 pounds of compostable waste. Composting produces rich soil with better water retention, reduces the need for chemical fertilizer, and improves plant and flower growth.
