We all know that switching from incandescent lightbulbs to energy-saving compact fluorescents can help save money and energy over time. But did you know those CFL bulbs also come in a wide variety of wattages, too? For little-used areas like closets and hallways, don't always opt for the bright-white, highest-wattage bulbs. Instead, choose lower-wattage bulbs that create just enough light. They'll use less energy, last just as long and will save you money in the long run, too.

Not only can a taxi ride to the airport be expensive, it can be wasteful; the taxis at the terminals often arrive with just one passenger and their suitcase. To save money and cut down on carbon emissions, find someone else near you who is going to the airport and share a ride. Cab Match is an app for your iPhone or Android phone that can help you find potential riders to share a cab with you. It's easy and does everything from searches to setting up a text chat with potential riders.

Did you know batteries that are inside personal electronics and toys can still be drained of power even if the item isn't being used? Make a habit to remove batteries from infrequently used items like remote controls for rarely used personal electronics, children's toys and other electronic items. Removing them after use will extend the life of the batteries, saving you money and the hassle of constantly having to replace them.
