What are you doing to make your carbon footprint smaller? (5)
I recycle most packaging, have a compost bin, waste very little in the way of food or water. What water I don't use I use for my plants, washing the car, etc. I walk rather than use my car whenever I am able. I don't use aerosols, I take unwanted clothes to the charity shop (thrift store). I maintain and encourage electronic communication at work rather than loads of print-outs. Video and tele-conferencing is preferable to travelling. I have only one light on at any given time, heating is on a minimum and I have only one overseas trip per year. I cook several meals in one go and freeze, plus I use the hob rather than the oven where possible.
Any good?

scottishlass47: perhaps we can all help each other with this one by telling us how we can help this planet we all share.
for example: I carry my own cloth shopping bags whenever I go shopping (even to the mall) no more plastic bags for me.
I don't buy bottled water, I installed a filtration system in my home and use & carry my own bottles.
I sort out & recycle everything I can.
I use public transportation whenever I can instead of using my car.
I only buy bio-degradable and/or chemical free cleaning products.
what other ways can we help?

I do as little as possible and try not to fart too much.
