As I actively look for ways to reduce my consumption, I'm always met with new opportunities! Today I decided to get a bucket in order to reuse shower water by plugging the drain and pouring the newly filled bathwater into my toilet. I also found a great deal on potatoes that I will now turn and donate to our local homeless shelter.
We often are not aware of the small things we can do that wind up having big effects. We all hear about things like water conservation, food health, and peak oil. How many of us can even begin to see how much we consume? How many of us care to?
