Are you trying to kick the plastic water bottle habit? It can be hard when you travel, which is why the bare-bones (but useful) website WaterAtAirports.com was created. It’s a list of airports all over the world that have refillable water stations. The forum is moderated and curated by green-minded jetsetters and tells you exactly at which terminals, gates and locations you can find water stations. Just bring your empty reusable water bottle through security and you can stay hydrated on the go.

If you want to help save elephants from extinction, the easiest thing to do is to never, ever buy ivory products. Even if the ivory item is marketed as “antique,” the reality is the majority of ivory is less than three years old. You should also only purchase coffee with bags stamped with the Forest Stewardship Council mark of approval. This ensures that not only is the coffee grown with fair trade practices in mind, but also it is done without destroying natural wildlife habitats critical for elephant survival.

Do you place fresh eggs in the special compartment in your refrigerator that holds them nice and snug? It might be time to break that habit. Eggshells are porous, which means they slowly dry out and lose their freshness. Leaving eggs in their container helps them stay fresher longer, since they aren’t exposed to chilled open air. Bonus tip: You can coat eggs with a little vegetable oil to make them less porous. This will add days of freshness to your eggs.
