Did you know that tens of millions of trees are cut down every year to make chopsticks in China? While you may not be living in China, you may enjoy serving dim sum and other Asian delights at home. Think green with your serving pieces by investing in reusable chopsticks in lieu of the cheap, disposable ones. Lots of kitchen supply stores stock reusable sticks, so look for them and stock up.

Reuse and sharing is everywhere if you know where to look. If you're planning on doing a DIY home repair project this weekend, consider renting tools instead of buying them. Many home improvement stores have little-known rental sections that will let you borrow pricey tools, such as paint sprayers, carpet cleaners, pressure washers and so much more, at a fraction of the cost.

Here's a recycling idea that can help you show a little love, too. If you're getting your long locks of hair cut off today for a fresh new look, donate your hair to Locks of Love. It's easy: If you're cutting off more than 10 inches of hair, ask the stylist to bundle it into a ponytail or braid and place it in a clear, plastic bag. Send it to Locks of Love, which will weave it into a hairpiece and send it to children who have lost hair because of medical reasons. Learn more at www.locksoflove.org.
