But many older cars do not have this feature, which means people who spend a significant amount of time in their cars can get a sunburn or worse from the sun's rays permeating the glass. Instead of replacing it with costly new glass, you can invest in clear sheets that cling onto the inside of the window and effectively block 99 percent of the sun's harmful UV rays and help reduce glare. They're a cinch to install and nearly invisible.

A recent study by Ford Motor Co. showed that investing in a fuel-efficient hybrid car significantly reduces the number of trips you need to make to the gas station to refuel.

With hundreds of millions of plastic PVC gift cards purchased, redeemed and exchanged every year, the question many people ask is: Are gift cards recyclable? Yes, they are. Since plastic gift cards aren’t biodegradable or usually accepted in curbside recycling bins, the next thing is to send your batch of depleted cards to Earthworks Systems for recycling. Earthworks grinds up the old cards and makes them into giant sheets of plastic to be used for new products. Send your gift cards (and canceled credit cards) to Earthworks Systems, 33200 Bainbridge Rd., Suite E, Solon, OH 44139.
