5 Quick, Money-Savings Green Living Tips by Gaiam

Save money and time while living green with these 5 quick tips that will save you cash and shrink your carbon footprint.

1. Plug your TV, computer, cable box, stereo and game console into smart power strips. Saves 10% off your power bill.

2. Dry a load of laundry outside. No clothesline? Try a portable drying rack. Skipping the dryer can save an annual $135.

3. Put up a “shade sail” or radiant barrier over a window to block the sun’s heat. Slashes 12% off your heating/cooling bill.

4. Install a low-flow showerhead. Saves 18% off your water bill.

5. Install a digital thermostat and program it to conserve energy when you’re away or asleep.

I love Gaiam… especially their organic cotton bedding and towels. I am also a huge fan of their yoga and pilates DVDs, a really complete store.
