Going Green While Saving Green
10 eco-friendly upgrades that won't break the bank
By Jessica Lippe
Would you like to make your camp more environmentally friendly, but the budget is too tight right now? Let’s face it--while it would be great to run on solar power, it’s just not practical or reasonable to make lavish “green” upgrades in today’s economy. In fact, by using the facilities you have in a new, innovative way, you can go green while still having a little green to spare!
1. Make Any Toilet Low-Flow--Do you ever wish you could replace old water-wasting toilets with a new low-flow model, but you know that the camp can’t possibly afford that kind of investment? You can still keep the current toilets, but try this simple trick to save hundreds of gallons of water every year. Take some empty soda or water bottles (the larger, the better), fill them with rocks and set them inside the toilet tanks. With each flush, you’ll be saving both water and money!
