Instead of pouring a leftover sports drink down the drain, give it to a sick plant instead. Wilting houseplants can get a much-needed boost from the sugar, electrolytes and vitamins found in sports drinks. So after you take a few gulps and re-energize, give your plant a shot of your Gatorade and some water; this could make them as good as new.

Bamboo is a great eco-friendly material that has a myriad of uses, but cookware may not be one of them when stocking your green kitchen. Since bamboo spatulas and large spoons need to be glued together in strips, overheating them in bubbly pots of sauce or boiling water could cause the glue to melt and seep into your food. Instead, invest in solid metal pieces that are intact and free of glues.
