3 R Friday

Welcome to 3 R Friday

A weekly series of simple tips geared toward helping you darken your shade of green. Easily.

Reduce: Reduce waste and resource usage by saying no thank you to duplicate checks.

• Go paperless for bills
• Use every line instead of every-other-line when balancing your checkbook
• Opt out of receiving a new checkbook cover with every order of checks.
• Pick up your checks from the bank instead of having them mailed.

Reuse: Reuse cardboard boxes for shipping, moving, and storage.

• Advertise your extra boxes on Freecycle.net for others to use

Recycle: Recycle 'harmful for the environment' items such as paint, batteries, cooking oil, paint thinner, and spent motor oil with your local garbage/recycling center.  Don't throw these items into your garbage cans.


Hope you found these tips helpful. Feel free to share any tips you may have.

Have a Great Green Weekend!
