What are some choices/changes you have made in your home or life to support going GREEN?

I switched to compound fluorescent lightbulbs. They last longer and consume one-quarter of the energy.

I Installed ceiling fans instead of air conditioning units to keep rooms comfortable in warm weather.

my torch and calculator both work with rechargeable batteries.

started to recycle old newspapers,taking showers instead of baths,turning off appliances when not using them.
