A blog that attempts to provide you with useful examples and tips that could make a large positive ecological impact, although they are seemingly minor, quick and easy changes to your daily routine.

Welcome to Ecotipsforlife.com

Ecology: meaning "study of house or living relations"

What is EcoTipsForLife.com not?
Ecotipsforlife.com is not a save the planet type website. I think we can be fairly certain the planet will save and balance itself out with or without our intervention and/or meddling.

We as a human species? Not so certain. We might or might not survive our planet's balancing act. We must find our own balance, awareness and a way to co-exists with the planet in order to survive.

Ok, what is EcoTipsForLife.com then?
EcoTipsForLife.com is a simple blog with the intent to show you that you can make a large impact by making simple changes that could even save you time in your daily routine. Browse the site and see for yourself.

February 25th, 2009 Thomas (Ecotipsforlife.com Admin)

Budget: $0 – FREE
Time required: minutes, days, weeks, whatever you decide
Estimated impact: Huge, reused items are diverted from landfills and new stuff is not being bought, hence not causing additional waste in production, packaging, etc.

The FreeCycle Network is a entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving and receiving stuff for free in their own towns.

The have groups all over the USA that you can join fro free. You can then post your stuff that you would like to give away and browse through stuff that people a giving away.
