10 ways to reduce your carbon foot print, by Eco-Bail Bondsman in Long Beach CA.


You have replaced the light bulbs in your house with long-life CFC (compact fluorescent) bulbs, switched to energy-efficient appliances and are responsibly recycling your waste, but want to do more. Here are some additional tips to reduce your carbon footprint.



1. When traveling by air, bring less baggage and pack lighter. Planes flying with excess baggage use more fuel.

2. Read the Long Beach Press Telegram and other magazines online to save trees and reduce waste.

3. Use cold water instead of heated water to wash and rinse clothes, hands as often as you can.

4. Stop and open the dishwasher before the drying cycle and let the dishes try naturally.

5. When using zip-Lock Bags, clean and reuse to prevent waste

6. Use collected rainwater and “gray” waste water to water your garden.

7. Switch to clean, renewable energy to reduce the overall environmental impact of your home. Cooling and heating account for over 70% of energy used in the home.

8. Use hand towels and fabric napkins, if you must use paper towels use recycled, instead of regular paper ones.

9. Plant a tree or donate to plant a tree. This is one of the best things you can do for the environment. Trees breathe in CO2 and breathe out oxygen.

10. Call http://www.eco-bailbonds.com/ when your in need of a Bail Bonding Service in the Lakewood and Long Beach are. We have vowed to reduce all paperwaste and donate a portion of all bail written to carbonfund.org
