How to Help Keep the Environment Healthy

Put aside your thoughts on Global Warming for a moment and think about the environment. Even though there are many people that do not believe Global Warming is a serious problem, almost everyone would agree that it's best to do what we can do to ensure a greener and healthier tomorrow for future generations.
Instructions

1.Vote for public officials that consider the environment to be an important issue. Certain officials put higher priority toward the environment. In fact, some officials could care less about the environment. Do your research and vote for someone who cares.

2.Recycle whenever possible. You might be surprised to know that nearly 25% of people do not bother to ever recycle. Perhaps you are even one of those 25% of people. Recycling helps to keep landfills down and saves on resources when making new items.

3.Fill your dishwasher and clothes washer completely full when washing a load. These machines use quite a bit of water when you are washing, and the water level does not vary depending on how full your load is. Make sure to fill the washer entirely full so that you are not wasting water.

4.Keep your house well insulated. Having a well insulated house will help save on heating costs during the cold winter months, and you will save on air conditioning costs during the warm summer months.

5.Unplug your unused electronic devices. You know that spare bedroom you have with the alarm clock that nobody ever uses? Unplugging unused electronic devices will not only save on the particular device, but you will also save on electricity costs.
