If you live in the city and the sounds of cars and sirens are keeping you up at night, consider making white noise. The whir of a fan can help cover up the noise and contribute to a quieter, more restful sleep.

If you're in the market to buy a new car, thinking fuel-efficient hybrid would obviously be the way to go. But there are other simple things you can do, too, like choosing the right paint color. A lighter-color car is a smarter choice because it deflects heat, helping your car stay cooler in the summer months. A darker color absorbs more heat, which takes longer to cool down.

When whitening whites, skip the harmful chlorine bleach. When bleach goes down the drain and eventually interacts with sewage water, a poisonous combination is created. Why take risks? Use hydrogen peroxide instead of bleach in your washing machine. It'll whiten whites and be kinder to the Earth.
