Turn the water off while brushing your teeth.

Recycle your batteries to reduce the 179,000 tons of them that end up in landfills each year.

Unplug your cell phone charger when it’s not in use, as well as other appliances around the apartment.


Instead of buying bottles of water, invest in a reusable one and fill it at water fountains.
