I’ll be the first to admit, I’m not very green compared to some seattlelites… I mean, I do my part and recycle what I can, but I don’t really go out of my way. But I have been trying 
One thing I’ve been doing is, using things I have on hand instead of buying new items…
Example:
I wanted a charming watering can:
but in efforts to reduce my carbon footprint I use an old bottle instead. It takes up less space and hold the perfect amount of water to feed my cucumbers, jalapenos, strawberries, tomatoes, basil and ivy plant. (on a hot day, I usually have to get a refill, but it works :) Mostly, I love how space efficient it is
I read a lot of good reviews on it, so I bought one, but it didn’t fare better than my Grandpa’s Weeder. 
Don’t get me wrong, they both work well on certain weeds and certain soil conditions, but for the “gecko tailed” Dandelion, they both were a hit and miss. So, I got a “green” weed killer called Burnout II, which is 11% citric acid.
