What are some eco-conscious things you do?
In our home we do a few things-
walk when we can (pick up mail, kids from school), own a hybrid car, support local farms by buying their produce, use cloth diapers, reduce out energy uses whenever we can, try to recycle and reduce the amount of trash we throw out.

I've heard mixed things about cloth diapers, due to the detergents, bleach, & extreme water usage.

We recycle as much as possible; walk, bike, or skateboard when practical, and bring our own mesh grocery bags rather than using paper or plastic. We've gotten comfortable keeping our thermostat @ 60 F in the winter, but we're still struggling to minimize our summer AC usage due to my wife's seasonal allergies - there are about 5 days out of the year when I can keep the windows open without making her miserable, lol!
