do green | feel good

We Are Big Green Head!

This monster is on a mission to change your perception about going green. It’s not difficult, nor is it costly... in fact we think it's pretty cool. Start doing green and feeling good. Have you got something better to do?

WHITTLE YOUR WATER

  • Turn off the tap in your bathroom while you brush your teeth.
  • Take shorter showers. (Use a timer)
  • Don't let the water run constantly while you're washing or rinsing dishes.
  • Fill a pitcher with tap water and put it in the fridge, rather than running the tap every time you want a cold drink.
  • Repair dripping faucets.
  • Reduce the amount of water you toilet uses per flush by placing a brick or closed container in your toilet tank.
  • Install low-flow and water-efficient appliances, shower heads and spigots.
  • Water your lawn in the early morning to avoid evaporation
  • Install rain barrels at the end of each gutter.
  • Sweep patios and sidewalks rather than hosing them
