Celebrate Earth Day with Procter & Gamble and Target



Next month is Earth Month, and Procter &Gamble is making it easier than ever to go green. They are partnering with Target during Earth Month to highlight these “future friendly” products:

Tide Coldwater
This detergent offers up to 80% energy savings in every load. *

PUR
By switching from bottled water to PUR faucet filtered water, you can save up to $600 a year** and make over a thousand bottles disappear***.

Pampers Cruisers
Made with Dry Max, these disposable diapers contain 10% less average material weight****. Moms using Pampers Swaddlers and Cruisers today have generated 15 million fewer pounds of waste than in 2007*****


*By switching from warm/cold to cold/cold for all loads in a standard top loader machine with an electric water heater set at 140F. **Comparing the annual capacity and average price of PUR pitcher system and 3 refills to the corresponding number of average price of 16 oz. water bottles. ***Based on average consumption of 3 bottles of water per household per day. **** Cruisers with Dry Max versus Cruisers 2007. *****Based on 2010 sales volume for Swaddlers/Cruisers.

  21. To reduce our carbon footprint (and our electric bill), we go very light on the heating and cooling. In the winter we never turn on our heat (we live in Texas, so it's feasible), and in the summer, we keep it at 78 when we can't stand the windows being open anymore.

  49. One of the things we've done to reduce our carbon footprint is to keep a compost pile. We can compost all fruit and veggie scraps, other non-protein and non-fat foods, newspapers and most other paper and cardboard. We benefit our garden soil and reduce (by almost half) what we send to the landfill. And, it doesn't smell or attract critters. asthenight at gmail dot com
