I know the obvious tips and methods. Are there any other interesting tips on how to reduce water and electricity that might be useful to use in a presentation? For example things that many people don’t know or things that aren’t so obvious, or things we may think is a water/electricity saving tip but is really not? please help! thanks.

I use public transport, I cycle, I don’t waste water, I don’t waste electricity, I reuse paper bags instead of using plastic bags. I conserve and try to recycle bottles and cartons. I save paper. I love trees.
What do you do?

What burns more fossil fuels car pollution or running the usual amount of electricity in your home? What if everyone took one day out of every month to not use transportation? How would you feel about that I think it would really help? It might hurt business but the environment is way more important. And why do you think it is that cars are becoming bigger and bigger and even though the technology is available to cut down on emission even more no one is using it. What if the government set a law in place that no cars could be manufactured after January 2008 that do not exceed a mpg limit? And what if laws were put in effect to limit the amount of traveling one could do depending on that rate and what they do for a living.

I know those laws would expend certain freedoms but it would be for the better good. Don’t you think I am right? Or am I delusional in my way to help the environment?
