I do not like to be cold. I keep it around 63 during the day, 60 at night. I wear several layers of clothing. I really really HATE being cold, but it's just something we need to do. Thanks for all the other info too..Claudine M.

I also use reusable shopping bags, recycle paper and plastic, and eat an all-vegetarian diet.

I keep my house between 67-68 but often bump up the temp for guests (some complain that it's too cold), but I'd rather throw on an extra sweater than have a hot house.MyKidsEatSquidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10801005441282252073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20448505.post-26134249047955735552009-12-31T16:50:43.884-05:002009-12-31T16:50:43.884-05:00These are wonderful reminders, Alexandra!

It's been eye-opening to realize that eating less meat does more for the earth than driving a Prius, and that even though we drive many more miles than our friends, our carbon footprint is smaller because we don't fly in airplanes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
