Buy recycled toilet paper. It takes less than 10 seconds to pick up a recycled package of TP at the store vs. new and choosing recycled toilet paper is a major green choice. Recycled toilet paper helps save water, trees, oil and landfill space, plus prevents pollution. For example, according to NRDC, if all households in the U.S. alone bought one 4 pack of recycled TP vs. new, it would save a million trees and eliminate 60,600 pounds of pollution.
Fill that reusable water bottle: 8 out of ten bottles, or over 38 million water bottles end up in landfills annually, so if you take 30 seconds to fill up a reusable water bottle with good ol’ tap water, it’s a very smart way to get green in a big way in no time at all.
