Spring is around the corner, which means your lawn will need to be mowed soon! Tune up your lawn mower and you'll reduce emissions up to 50 percent; you'll also cut back on your fuel consumption. Your local hardware shop can tune it for you, or visit www.yardsmarts.com for more information.

The next time you're feeling under the weather, be sure to disinfect your toothbrush when you're finally rebounding. If you don't, you risk reinfecting yourself simply by brushing your teeth! To disinfect, place a wet toothbrush in the microwave for about a minute on high; it'll radiate the germs away. When in doubt, replace the brush with a new one. (What an opportune time to give a recycled Preserve toothbrush a try!)

Recycle paper and help your local school at the same time! Save your junk mail, magazines, office paper and newspapers and drop them off in a Paper Retriever recycling bin found at schools across America. The paper gets recycled and the schools receive money for the amount of paper they collect. It's a win-win deal. Learn more at www.paperretriever.com.
