How do I go green as a teen? Well im just a sixteen year old girl who is willing to help out the environment in some way. How will I do so without making super dramatic changes. Besides recycling what else can I do? :) What kind of products should I use?
-Use a reusable shopping when you go shopping. And local store should have some cute ones, or just use a big purse if you have one.
-Instead of using google, use the site goodsearch. Everytime you seach a penny is donated to a charity of your choice, so you could choose a charity such as carbonfund.org, so you would be searching and offsetting your carbon emissions at the same time.
-Start a green club at your school where you can organize environmentally friendly events to help the earth.
-Encourage your famliy to buy local and organic foods as much as possible. Refuse to eat anything else!
-Plant some trees, they suck up that bad CO2.
-Start a compost bin.-
-Go outside more, and get away from the energy sucking T.V.s
-And finally, get all your friends to go green! Have parties where you make reusable dish rags,or napkins. Watch An Inconvient Truth together. And do your best to help the planet!

Good luck! ...all their stuff is super-cute and eco-friendly. It%26#039;s made from hemp and recycled tires and stuff.

If you aren%26#039;t already a vegetarian, eat less red meat, because it reduces your carbon footprint.

Encourage your mom or dad or whoever does the grocery shopping to use cloth bags. You can get these online. Google it.

Consolidate Trips. I don%26#039;t know if you have your permit or licence or anything, but if you%26#039;ve got an errand to run, get them all done in one trip, and save gas.

:] thats all i got. have fun with it!!
