Other Eco-Friendly Alternatives
-
Patch or repair old clothes before purchasing new items.
-
Shop at thrift stores or other used clothing establishments.
-
Reuse plastic bags whenever possible.
-
Use cloth napkins to prevent paper waste; these can be purchased or easily handmade.
-
Instead of buying wrapping paper, decorate gifts creatively with newspaper or other household items.
For family holiday gifts, cloth gift bags can be made (or bought) and reused for years, with less cost and elimination of the hassle of wrapping! Try a certain pattern for each member
of the family. It's the same principle that applies to stockings, only amplified!
-
Use digital photography if you can afford it. The extra bucks for a long-use camera eliminate
the waste of disposable, and with digital, the pictures can be stored on the computer and will thus avoid the risks of physical
deterioration over time. Plus, you can print only the pictures you like and not waste paper on bad photos.
-
To save energy, use florescent light bulbs (more information).
-
Buy used books, and resell them to the bookstore when you're through, or even utilize a local library
if the situation allows. (Though, will the use of a library book be offset by the fuel used to both borrow and return said
book? This is a certainly a variable in play.)
-
Purchase mesh or any other type of reusable shopping bags.
-
Sell or donate any items that are not broken but would otherwise be thrown away or not used, that way
fewer new items will be made to satisfy demands (or, at least, that is what we hope).
-
Buy in bulk to cut the price and limit the waste from extra packaging.
-
Buy organic food. It may not be cheaper, but it's healthier and better for the environment.
-
Shop at local farmer's markets. Economically, you eliminate the middle man and put money directly
back into your community. Often, fresh fruits and vegetables are cheaper.
-
It may be cliché, but walk or bike whenever possible. If you have to drive, make as few trips
as possible. If you're going somewhere that someone else is going, try to carpool. If available, use public transportation
before personal automobiles; you save the gas and you don't have to park.
-
Certainly more to come!

More Green: Environmental Groups
- Students for Environmental Action - SEA is Johns Hopkins University's Students for Environmental Action, an on-campus group for students concerned with the
present state of the environment; be it local, national, or global. We hold numerous awareness/action events every semester.
In addition, SEA holds stream cleanups of Stony Run and teaches Barclay Elementary school children about the environment.
- Southern Environmental Law Center - Nonprofit advocacy organization that protects the environmental quality and outstanding natural resources of Alabama, Georgia,
North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia.
- The Pennsylvania Environmental Network (PEN) - PEN's mission has always been to support and encourage local grassroots activism throughout Pennsylvania by providing
the framework through which individuals and groups alike could network.
- The National Association of Environmental Professionals (NAEP) - a multidisciplinary, professional association dedicated to the promotion of ethical practices, technical competency,
and professional standards in the environmental fields. Our members reflect a diversity of employers, including government,
industry, academia, consulting firms, and the private sector in the U.S. and abroad.
- Global Warming Myths and Facts - Normally, news programs are abuzz with stories about murders, house fires, political sniping, and non-life-impacting sagas
like runaway brides, doped-up sports stars, and lotto winners who squandered their fortune on sports cars and more lotto tickets.
Rarely does a tame subject like global warming—which is just a little geophysical phenomenon that has the potential
to disrupt civilization as we know it in the next century—rate any mention at all. And when it does get air time, our
media nitwits usually resort to reporting on the latest squabbling over the subject without bothering to sort out the science
from the spin. Read the Facts...
- The Green Institute - The Green Institute's core mission is to create and offer pragmatic solutions to critical problems of the day - and beyond.
The Green philosophy is a broad and coherent program that transcends a narrow sense of politics to include attention to the
quality of life, the social fabric, ecological wisdom, eco-social justice, global responsibility, nonviolence, community development,
and respect for the spiritual dimension of life.
