As we’re quickly approaching that infamous Times Square ball falling, it’s time to think ahead and make New Years resolutions. Debating what you should 
do to be greener in the New Year?
Here’s 10 ideas to party like it’s 2009:
- Use less paper
- Plant a tree
- Stop shopping with plastic bags
- Shop wisely – some greener clothes or bags?
- Eat more organic foods
- Stop using bottled water - Use reusable stainless steel instead
- Travel more (& offset your carbon footprint)
- Recycle more - Even products that are more ‘difficult’ to do so
- Reduce your environmental impact
- New Years cleaning – Recycle your Christmas tree!
Want a simpler resolution? This quote may help: “How to be green? Many people have asked us this important question. It’s really simple and requires no expert knowledge or complex skills. Here’s the answer: Consume less. Share more. Enjoy life.” (Penny Kemp & Derek Wall)

Great ideas for green resolutions for 09. I got some reusable bottles from Santa, so I am excited to have at least one resolution – since I make about 10 every year – that I can make stick!
Happy New Year!
