Sasha on the Street

Lately one of my favourite shows to watch is The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos. It is entertaining, informative, makes me laugh and a great way to close my day.

More recently on the show he has been promoting One Million Acts of Green; your way to make a difference to the environment. The simplest way to describe it is you track the way you minimize your impact on the environment by subscribing to the site and subscribing to the things you participate in

My One Million Acts of Green include:

• packing a litterless lunch – not only is it better for the environment it is usually better for my health to; I can pack a well-balanced lunch
• do laundry in cold water – add an environmentally friendly laundry detergent to that and it’s even more green.
• drink Tap water from a refillable stainless steel water bottle
• compost and recycle at home – about every two weeks we only throw away about half of a small grey bin. I can’t wait for the day when there is no grey bin

Those are just a few but probably some of the most important to me.

What are your acts of green?
