When that bottle of vino is empty, you can take one step to make recycling it just a little bit greener. According to the website Recyclebank.com, never leave the cork in the bottle when you toss it into the recycling bin. Recycling centers do not recycle them and since they are so small, they run the risk of jamming the machinery. And remember to take the time to remove the metal wrapping around the top of the bottle. It is recyclable, so just toss it into a metal can and place it in your recycling bin.

Instead of using one of the big search engines like Google or Yahoo, consider using Ecosia.com instead. It works just like any other search engine to help you find what you need, but it uses its ad revenue to plant trees. When you make a search, targeted ads appear in the results -- like in any search engine. Revenue that's earned from those ads goes to plant trees all over the world. Since 2009, over 3 million trees have already been planted.

The nonprofit OneSight works to bring new eyeglasses to people all over the world who otherwise could not afford the gift of vision correction. One way to help the organization is to unload your junk drawers of old eyewear -- including regular glasses, sunglasses and bifocals -- and drop them off in free recycling boxes at stores like LensCrafters and Pearle Vision. The old eyewear is stripped and recycled, and all the proceeds are donated to OneSight, which uses the funds raised for its important charity work.
