These are all great ideas. Another great resolution to have is to carpool, take public transit, and combine trips whenever possible. These will all help in improving air quality.

My best New Year Resolution resquire sacrifice in my cleanness. It is especially true for me in water conservation since the U. S. A. is having critical drought in the South Eastern states. I will take less showers/baths, wash clothes or cars less often use less detergent and water, wear clothes for longer period, sometime microwave can also heat and kill off germs on dishes, clean house less often to conserve cleaners, etc..... That will not work for other people but certainly work for me.

Traditional ResolutionL Pay off debt/save money

Lynn & Corey's Ecosolution: Reduce consumption and pay off debt or pad your nest egg with money saved

Traditional Resolution: Drink less alcohol

Lynn & Corey's Ecosolution: Drink less, but when you do drink, make it organic/biodynamically grown and give preference to glass bottles over aluminum

I will tune in to local environmental news resources like CT Environmental Headlines.

These are some wonderful ideas for green living. There are many ways for families to go green such as recycling, using eco-friendly household supplies and cleaning products, and buying green goods for the home. I found many great ideas at this site: http://www.greatgreenlist.com/
