Here in Uk,we are lucky that seniors get a free bus pass, so I only use my car when neccessary, I have a compost bin, and we also have a green bin provided to put all our garden waste in which is picked up every two weeks and recycled. We also have another bin wich we put paper. cans. and bottles into which is also picked up every two weeks to be recycled. I only use my dryer when needs must, i love my clothes dried outdoors.The one thing I will not cut back on is my heating in the winter
