Off the top of my head

In the news:

Thank God the reign of stupidity is almost over.

Tip:
One good way to warm up your house without using excessive heat is by weatherstripping your doors and windows. The cracks between doors and windows are the perfect opportunity for heating to escape. The U.S. Department of Energy has an extensive section on weatherstripping, even breaking down the types and where you’ll want to install them.

Random Fact:
The aluminum beverage can returns to the grocer's shelf as a new, filled can in as little as 90 days after collection, re-melting, rolling, manufacturing and distribution. Consumers could purchase the same recycled aluminum can from a grocer's shelf every 13 weeks or 4 times a year.

What have you done for a greener planet?
