When stocking up on snacks at the grocery store, think organic. There is a wide variety of yummy chips, crackers and cookies made with certified organic ingredients. While these salty and sweet snacks may not be as healthy (or dietetic) as fruits and veggies, at least they're made using ingredients grown without chemical pesticides and fertilizers. And that'll help you feel a tiny bit better when you snack away.

If the great outdoors is driving you buggy, think twice before installing one of those electric bug zappers. The zappers are pretty much useless in getting rid of mosquitoes from your backyard; in fact, they actually attract more mosquitoes to your yard. The mosquitoes are first attracted to the light, but once they get wind of carbon dioxide coming from your breath, they head straight to you and away from the light. Since mosquitoes like stagnant air, turn on a fan; it'll cool you down and keep them away.

While drinking from a reusable water bottle is the greenest way to go, there is a backup idea if you must buy bottled water. Just buy mineral water, which comes in both flat and fizzy varieties, in glass bottles. Glass is not only easily recyclable, it's infinitely recyclable. Glass bottles become new glass bottles.
