A way of using a resource so it's not depleted or damaged, but preserved for future generations Organic farmers use environmentally friendly alternatives to the synthetic fertilizers and toxic If everyone used their own tote bag just once a year, we'd keep billions of plastic and paper shopping bags out of the waste stream and save about 60,000 trees. Post-Consumer Recycled By using a tool like the Personal Climate Calculator at the American Forests website, www.americanforests.org We've converted to biodiesel in our farm equipment and new company vehicles, and most of our partners are converting their farming equipment, too Reduce air pollution as much as taking a million cars off the road for the year Conserve 2 million gallons of petroleum Finding conservation initiatives that are sustainable both economically and environmentally.

Farside, you're awesome! I just started bringing my own bags from home to the store. I hate it when I forget to put the bags in the car and end up having to use more plastic bags. But I do reuse and recycle the plastic bags that I get.

Because I tend to forget to bring my canvas bags to the store with me when I go, I now store them in my car. I have retrained myself so that now I use them (and not the plastic bags) for my fast dashes into the drug store as well as when I grocery shop.
