Jack/Zen on Sustainable Practices

Cleveland blogger Jack Ricchiuto blogs his personal practices for sustainability this week.

I have tried to become more mindful of how much printing I do at work. In the last month I've stopped printing my daily calendar from Lotus Notes. At first I thought it would be hard to live without it, but it turns out I don't need it most days. That's one piece of paper less each workday - it seems small, but year after year and person after person it adds up!

There are so many small things we can practice in our lives to improve and extend our use of resources. What practices have you taken up or built upon recently?

I cut grass with a push mower. About 2,000 sq. ft. too. I must say, I miss a good smelly Briggs and Stratton. I'll keep pushing though.
 
I try not to print unless absolutely necessary and when I do, it is double-sided. Since I am in charge of ordering supplies for my peeps I by all recycled materials when available.
 
Dave, that's a lot of push mowing. Just think of the health benefits!

Jason, I'll be following your new blog with interest. Thanks for commenting here and making me aware of it!
