It’s Earth Day! Celebrate by taking steps to go green and make a difference today and every day.

Here are some tips courtesy of earthday.org that can help you go green, save money and help the planet.

• Use environmentally-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products.
• Replace inefficient incandescent light bulbs with efficient CFLs or LEDs. Reduce your carbon footprint by 450 pounds a year.
• Carpool, ride your bike, use public transportation or drive an electric or hybrid car. Reduce your carbon footprint by one pound for every mile you do not drive.
• Keep your tires properly inflated and get better gas mileage. Reduce your carbon footprint 20 pounds for each gallon of gas saved.
• Change your car’s air filter regularly.
• Teleconference instead of traveling. If you fly five times per year, those trips are likely to account for 75% of your personal carbon footprint.

• Recycle paper, plastic and glass. Reduce your garbage by 10% and your carbon footprint by 1,200 pounds a year.
