I recycle as much as I can. I compost everything I can. I've even trained my husband to compost though he complains bitterly of the smell (I find it "earthy" more than stinky most of the time!). I don't use canned or prepared foods 99% of the time. I subscribe to freecycle.com to keep things out of the landfill. I am careful with electric use, turning off lights when I leave the room. I garden a lot to give back O2 to the environment from the plants. Every little bit helps us all.
