Our laundry uses an ozone machine that recaptures water. In October 2008 we completed a PG&E-sponsored energy audit that included replacement of all incandescent lights with compact CFLs. We compost our kitchen scraps and use the compost to fertilize our gardens. Although our entire garden is not a xeriscape, we use many drought-tolerant plants and water as sparingly as possible. We have stopped using styrofoam take-out containers and now use paper boxes. We turn off all computers, monitors, and printers when not in use.
