Green

Last night I got what I call "blost" or lost in the blogosphere. My subject: going green. I am not into trend-grabbing or hopping on bandwagons but the idea intrigued me and, honestly, purely from an economic standpoint. I thought - How can I save summer water costs by collecting rainwater? What is the ROI for PHV solar panel installations? Can I get rid of garbage costs entirely? (Answer- Not until wee Nicky is out of diapers). In any event, the lifestyle change began to interest me more than the dollar savings and I am starting to look at adjustments I can make in my daily activities and my "home operations" to become more green. Simple stuff like purchasing reusable grocery bags, replacing lightbulbs with CFLs, more conscientious recycling efforts, composting, etc. I know I am late to this game but better late than never.
