Namaste to your efforts and ideas. To my Easy Steps list, I will add: Eat Less Meat (I was vegetarian for years and now eat only local meat occasionally) Consolidate Car Trips (been there, do this!) Host a "Stuff Swap" (I have not done this yet, but will now and keep you posted!) Thanks everyone! Namaste to your efforts and ideas. To my Easy Steps list, I will add:
