What are some extra things that we all could do, but dont? I'm working at a fast food restaurant and i've noticed a lot of little things. Like taking the bread that we are made to throw away each night. Its really still good, and its good to make a sandwich at home with. Another thing is, if you are always drinking water, and drink bottle water, every one in awhile, when you are about to throw it away fill it back up with tap water and but it back in the refrigerator and drink it another time.

i learned something nifty the other day to conserve water. if your toilet is old or less water efficient, please soda bottle filled with water into the tank of the toilet. it will take up space and the tank will fill with less water... conserving more water with every flush... i've tried it on our toilets and it helps a lot. they use way too much water!

another thing you could do is wrap your water heater in an insulated blanket, and turn down or shut off your water heater when your going to be gone for more than a few days.
