1.  Change a light -Replacing one regular light bulb with a compact fluorescent light will save 150 pounds of carbon dioxide per year.
2.  Drive less -Walk, bike, carpool or take metro transit more often. You’ll save one pound of carbon dioxide for every mile you didn’t drive!
3.  Recycle more -You can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide per year by recycling just half of your household wastes
4.  Check your tires -Keeping you tires inflated properly can improve gas mileage by more than 3%. Every gallon of gasoline saved keeps 20 pounds of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere
5.  Use less hot water -It takes lot of energy to heat water. Use less hot water by installing a low-flow showerhead (350 pounds of CO2 saved per year) and washing your clothes in cold or warm water (500 pounds per year)
6.  Avoid products with a lot of packaging -You can save 1,200 pounds of carbon dioxide if you cut down your garbage by 10%.
7.  Adjust your thermostat -Moving your thermostat down just 2 degrees in winter and up 2 degrees in summer could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide per year.
8.  Plant a tree -A single tree will absorb one ton of carbon dioxide over its lifetime.
