Well here it is, your chance to speak up about your very own ingenious green innovations. My green heroes are people who can innovate and green their lives by making a few inspired tweaks to their daily routine.

For instance:

1. Planting something you love to eat, even if it is one tomato or basil plant on your windowsill or deck.
2. Using green cooking practices and making more than one meal at a time and freezing it.
3. Always carrying a small notebook with a shopping list and reminders to optimize trips to the market.
4. Cutting up and repurposing old baby receiving blankets to be used as hankies, this girl is definitely thinking outside of the box!
5. Making braided rag rugs from old woolen skirts and sweaters and rags.
6. Reusing chopsticks till they disintegrate, clever!
7. Making art from your drawer full of metrocards, inspired!
8. Having your shoes repaired instead of buying new ones.
9. Watering your houseplants and garden with your washing up water (using low impact detergent).
10. Riding your bike or walking to work once a week or shopping with a pull cart.
11. Always toting your own reusable joe to go cup.
12. Going as paperless as possible.
13. Sharing your DVD's and books with friends.

Please feel free to share your green inspirations with us!
