Save on Dishwashing
To wring the most savings you can from your dishwasher, use the lowest (briefest) setting and don't pre-rinse. If you are concerned about dried-on food staying on the dishes, do what we do. Put the dishes on the floor and let the pets lick them clean (only if you didn't have onions or other foods that are not good for pets)! Also, we put dishes in the sink, briefly, and let the water that runs over them as we wash our hands and do other chores rinse them automatically.

Haha, that's clever! Even if it's not directly recycling or growing your own produce for food, conserving water still helps the green movement. Every little bit counts! Also, you should look into using recycled office products! Check out some cheap and good deals at discountrecycledofficeproducts.com
