Did you know that for every 10 minutes a car is idling, a pound of carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere? One avoidable cause of emissions is when you’re driving in circles in a city, shopping mall or popular destination looking for a parking spot. The Parkmobile app can help prevent this waste of gas and time by eliminating your need to hunt for a place to park. With the app, not only can you find spots, but you also can reserve them and even refill a meter from your phone. The app is growing nationwide, so check parkmobile.com to see if they participate where you live.

Many of us have ditched the iron for a steamer to blast away wrinkles on our clothing at home. But did you know a steamer can also be used for other things around the house? You can use the power of hot water and steam to blast and break up residue, grime and soap scum in the shower. Just run the steam over the bathtub, fixtures and tile and then wipe it all away with a soft towel. No need for chemical cleaners or bleach, and it’s gentle enough not to ruin grout between tiles, too.

If you have artificial seasonal wreaths or other outdoor decorations that you use year after year, one thing that can cause them to deteriorate over time is ultraviolet light from the sun’s rays. To keep the faux evergreen leaves, ribbons, fake berries and other items looking their colorful best, consider using a fabric protectant spray that has UV protection in it. These sprays are normally for things like boats or rain gear, but they can do a fantastic job in preventing splitting, fading, cracking and more on your outdoor items.
