How to Go Green at Home:

Use your food scraps to create your own compost:

Invest in having solar panels installed on the exterior of your home:

Alternatively you may want to invest in a few antique pieces to dress your home with. Such as an antique grandfather clock or an antique chest of drawers.

Adopt a couple of hens:

Instead of purchasing eggs, if you have room for a hen house and a fenced off garden, you may want to consider adopting a couple of hens. As a bonus, not only do hens lay eggs on a daily basis but hens also make affectionate, well mannered pets.

Fix items instead of throwing them out:

If you have a habit of throwing out items, learn to mend and fix broken items. Instead of purchasing brand new items, in order to lessen your impact on the environment.

So if you’re committed to going green and leading a more sustainable, eco-friendly lifestyle, it’s a great idea to test out some of the green tips which are listed above.
