A Twist on an Old Cliche...

"Save water: shower with a friend (and protection)."

Somewhere in the avalanche-waiting-to-happen that is my book collection, I have a little gem called, I believe, 50 Simple Things You Can Do to Save the Earth. If I do manage to find it, I'll post some more serious one-liners.

Just quickly and off the top of my head, another thing to do is become an armchair environmentalist. You don't have to be on the front lines, going to rallies and staging protests, but by joining the mailing lists of organizations like Defenders of Wildlife, the World Wildlife Fund, and the Humane Society, you can be kept up-to-date on pending environmental/conservation legislation, and be given easy access to resources to speak out on it. Finally, there's also the Greater Good network of sites: Animal Rescue, Rainforest, Hunger, Literacy, Breast Cancer, and Child Health -- all you do is click daily!
