Many decorating blogs suggest using fishing line to hang up outdoor decorations since it can hold a lot of weight and is nearly invisible to the eye. But that can be problematic, too: The nearly clear plastic wire can be hazardous to birds that fly through your yard. While it may be aesthetically pleasing, avoid using fishing line to rig lights, wreaths and other outdoor decor. Birds can entangle themselves in it, or worse, die when they fly directly into the taut wire.

This simple adjustment will create almost no noticeable difference inside your home, but you will reap rewards by using less fuel or electricity to keep your house warm. And your dad really did have the best advice: If you are feeling a little chilly, just throw on a sweater.

If you enjoy a cold beer with a lime and you leave the lime inside the empty bottle, can you still recycle the bottle? When it comes to small food waste in your recyclables, something like a lime wedge is totally fine. In the recycling process, glass bottles are collected, crushed and melted; any residual waste (limes, paper labels, caps) are sorted out or incinerated. So go ahead and enjoy your Corona with lime, and be sure to recycle the bottle when you're done.
