What steps have you take or changes you have made to become more eco-friendly?

we recycle everything we can.
we will cloth diaper.
my girl prefers cloth pads, but we lost a whole stash in the move so we have to replace them.
i try to use more natural cleaners as much as possible.
we did use cloth TP for a bit.
we use biodegradable litter for the creatures.
we do a lot of reusing & buy as many reusable products as we can.

Well i guess i do use green methods somewhat. I always reuse containers, I use natural cleaners. I really want to be more green! I just need more ideas.

We recycle pretty well and I try to use natural cleaners as much as possible. My thing right now is putting half Blue Dawn (not exactly natural but not too bad) and half vinegar in a dish scrubber with the handle you fill with soap (non-abrasive) and have been using that for cleaning the tubs and showers. Also microfiber cloths are great for windows and mirrors with just water. I tried cloth diapering but didn't love the leaks. I use some cloth trainers for my son. I'm sure there's more.

I'm sure there's more. i use blue dawn for everything too! Laundry, the tub, the counters, the microwave even the floors! I have some cheap microfiber cloth diaper doublers i've been using as cleaning cloths. I'm definitely going to need more of those. |

I also remembered I'm using wool dryer balls now. I've never looked back to dryer sheets.
