A comment on Ask HN: What actions did you take against climate change?. Parent comment
* Bars of soap rather than liquid soap in plastic bottles
* Re-use plastic shopping bags to put waste in rather than buying black-bags
* Pushing for WFH as much as possible (cutting down on a 60-mile round trip each day)
* Keeping my smart phone for 3+ years (I see no need to buy a new one every year). It's always the battery that dies first.
* Keeping old PCs and laptops running for friends and family
* Paying extra to our local council to collect and use our green-waste (food & garden waste)
* Batch cooking + freezing
* LED all the lights
A lot of these are done because of the financial benefit (they just have the added bonus of being "green").
