 Age: 17 Gender: Female Posts: 27 | Dasha:23. Don't charge your phone/batteries/iPod/whatever until the battery is fully and completely drained.
Why would that help?  You're gonna recharge it at some point: delaying it doesn't use less energy (unless I've got it wrong - explain?)
Wouldn't that just be impractical and possibly not good for the thing you're recharging?
30. Spread awareness of what we are doing to the environment and how we can help to stop it. |

34. Become a vegetarian or vegan. It's a proven fact that it helps the environment!

for one it kills the battery, it will make it unable to go as long before having to recharge (the battery just doesn't last as long, I don't know why) and two it would just waste energy |

If you charge it before the battery is drained, then you will charge it again sooner, whereas if you charge it only when the battery is drained, it will cut the charging time in half... Saving energy. If that makes sense? |

38. Recycle, and buy recycled items.
39. Reduce your daily meat intake.
40. Buy organic foods and buy locally (it'll reduce the energy it takes to drive your products to and from the store).

Actually, while organic foods are healthier, they often have to be imported, so it's not particularly good for the environment.
43. Open windows or wear layers instead of using your A/C or heater. |
