Go Green, Stay Home

I was thinking about how I am doing my part to save the environment by working from home.

  • I drive less, on average, 60 miles a week. That includes picking up my kid from day care and all weekly errands.
  • I use less electricity. I prefer ceiling fans to air conditioning and another layer to cranking up the heat.
  • I create less garbage as I don't use disposable plates or utensils for lunch.
  • I use less water, as I only shower when my family, and, sometimes, neighbors complain.

    Even though I don't drive a Prius (is it possible to cram a 3 year old and all her crap into one, anyway?). I am doing my part.

  • Comments:

    Don't know about the Prius, I bought a Ford Mondeo Station Wagon recently, and that negates all my eco-saving from working from home...
