Save Your Planet—and Your Wallet Going
green doesn’t mean spending big bucks on organic food, solar
panels, and hybrid cars. At its core, green living is simply
about moderation, efficiency, and—believe it or not—living
less expensively. Shift Your Habit shows you how to
make easy changes to your lifestyle that will do the most to
benefit your budget and the planet. Included
are hundreds of habit-shifting suggestions to leave you with
thousands of dollars you would otherwise never see again.
These are tiny modifications that any family can make . . .
and some already have. You’ll meet fifteen families who can
testify to just how simple shifting can be and how much
money can be saved. Shift Your
Habit pinpoints small tweaks that can lead to huge
personal and planetary rewards, such as: •
Switch to an ultra-low-flow showerhead—save $135 a year
• Pack waste-free school lunches—save $200 per child a
year • Reduce your driving speed by 5 m.p.h.—save $900 a
year • So far, Shifter Families have saved almost
$100,000, nearly 500,000 gallons of water, and more than 15
tons of waste Every shift counts, and with
numbers like these, it’s easy to see just how much.
