Here are some more of my client and friend tips on going green in Seattle:

• Jen says her cloth baby diaper service is awesome and she also uses canvas grocery bags. Here is a link to a Seattle cloth baby diaper service. There are pros and cons, but each site is very informative.
  
• I noticed that Animal Care Center (one of the best vets in Seattle is Tracy Tomlinson) in Mountlake Terrace has some interesting posters up about Dog waste pollution and its impact on the environment. My friend recently mentioned buying or making a dog waste solution for her back yard.
  
• I got flush the toilet less from both Rob & M – I would also add that buying a low flow toilet or dual flush model could go a long way. I personally have to recommend the Toto brand
  
• Rob says cloth diapers, solar panels, fluorescent light bulbs and less toilet flushing. I also saw recently that REI among others are selling cool solar chargers for cell phones, etc.
  
• Kathi likes rain barrels and I have to get at least two! Here is some info on attaching a rain barrel to your gutter system in Seattle. There are tons of Seattle rain barrel sources!
  
• Dave & Brian: Unplug the chargers in the house or plug them in on a switched outlet that you don’t use much – save a ton of electricity this way because these electronics draw power even when not charging…
  
• Sam: “My favorite “green” change was moving to reusable grocery bags. http://usa.envirosax.com/index.php has a line of cute, sturdy, and best of all, small bags that fold up and get tucked into a pocket or purse.”
  
• John & Laurie:
  1.  Recycle 2.  Drive our small economy car whenever we can 3.  Compost grass clippings 4.  Eco-friendly detergents for washing the cars
