Do you pay attention to reduce the wastage of water ,electricity and paper etc. in your home or office?
I just read a post at a Bloggers user blog and suggest you to read the post and share your ideas here or on the post.

Honestly I try to save as much as I can. But no matter how much responsible people try to talk and teach others to act carefully and rationally, those who don't care just won't care.
Here at home it's all controlled, have three children and if the water bill and the limit of their allowance I discount them.

Ricardo, Nice to meet you.
I agree with you reducing wastage is friendly for both our budget and the world environment.
EXERCISE CONTROL. Practice "WASTE NOT". Adults check each other. Children learn from adults. Ricardo is right. Exceeding controlled cost means forgoing something.... like no watching TV for 3 days or no going out for restaurant food the following month and such litle self punishments will bring order and discipline.
In my apartment, we are three 20-somethings with incredibly busy lives, so it's not always that easy to devote too much time, but we do try our best.
For starters, we recycle. Since we have started doing so, it has made us more conscious of our actions. We ALWAYS turn off all electronics and even unplug those electricity sucking items (XBox, TV, etc.) It's also really important for us to only use what we NEED and not necessarily what we want. We wash and re-use glass/plastic jars and containers for other purposes. We also have a filtered water jug in our fridge that we drink out of, instead of plastic bottles.
Great job!
That's what wanted to know. Really wonderful ideas.
Thanks for sharing!
