According to the Environmental Protection Agency, being diligent about paying attention to the weather forecast can help the environment and save you money. If you plan to fertilize your lawn, do it when conditions are dry, not rainy. Fertilizing your lawn before a storm will simply cause it to run off the lawn and down the storm drain, where excess fertilizer can pollute rivers, lakes and other waterways. Wait for at least a 72-hour window of dry weather to maximize both your savings and environmental responsibility.

Riding a bicycle instead of driving a car is one of the greenest things you can do to help the environment. But with a rise in bike theft, many people opt to drive out of fear their bike could be stolen. One thing you can do to help protect yourself is to register your bike with the National Bike Registry (nationalbikeregistry.com), where you can register the bike’s serial number and report it stolen if it should ever happen. A registered serial number can help your local law enforcement agency help connect a recovered stolen bike with its rightful owner.

Every year, millions of CDs and DVDs are thrown away because they are either too worn to use or there is no need for them at local charities or nonprofits. Instead of tossing them, you can recycle them. The CD Recycling Center of America takes old CDs and DVDs (and their plastic cases) and grinds them down into recyclable plastic. This plastic is then recycled and made into industrial components used by the automotive and building materials industries. Visit cdrecyclingcenter.org for more information.
