Tip of the day to help save the earth! Easter Sunday, 2008

By
Real Estate Agent with Windermere Real Estate

Tip of the day for Easter Sunday 2008.  Think about this while you take your home movies and pictures of your family this Easter... 

Use re-chargable batteries! Although they may cost more to buy, re-chargable batteries will save you 10 or 20 times the original cost (by not buying new batteries over and over again), and not get thrown in the trash. Also - if you MUST use the one-time use batteries, at least RECYCLE them!  Prolong the life of any batteries by using a cord (and AC adapter, if necessary) for radios, video cameras, and other appliances when possible.

As always, please comment with questions or if you have anything to add!

Good point.  Pay more now save later, plus save toxic chemicals in the town dump.

Excellent advice; I don't understand why more people don't buy the rechargables.

Jonelle, great post and good advice.   You may pay a little more up front, but save in so many other ways.
