Use the Stairs

Waiting for that elevator to get one floor up? Well, use the stairs please.

Use the stairs as much as you can. Do it today! try it. At least use it to get down the stairs, if you are unable to climb up. Use the stairs for many reasons, conserve power, burn some energy, improve your health.

If you are in a very high floor, go part way in the elevator and walk the rest! Its OK, if you can only do 2 flights of stairs, that still counts.

No act is too small, every single act, however trivial it may seem like, STILL COUNTS!

Bike

Bike to work, Bike to a store or simply bike for fun.... however you want to call it and whatever reason you want to ride a bike for, its just a great green activity.

Biking is a great way to burn less fuel and burn more calories - both great for the environment. A green life, should definitely involve a healthy lifestyle, a balanced and low fuel consuming lifestyle. Biking is one fantastic option to use to lead that lifestyle.

Mark your calendars today! Make room for at least once a month bike days. Once a month is still not a bad idea... just once a month!

Remember - Mark your calendars today! Once a month Bike day.

tip: If weather doesn't permit, make sure you reschedule your calendar to fit that once a month bike day. If you other compelling reasons, that do not favor biking, then try, walking, snow shoeing, anything to minimize fuel usage atleast once a month.
