Go Green with Cherry Hill Mall!

Check out these great tips and local businesses and organizations that can help you GO GREEN in your daily life!

Go Green at Home

Dispose of Disposables

Minimize the use of disposable/single use anything: paper towels, plastic spoons or paper plates, etc. Using the dishwasher is better for your wallet and Mother Earth!

Recharge

Save up to $200 a year using rechargeable batteries instead of disposables in one battery operated device used two hours a day.

Concentrate

Buy concentrated anything and everything, reduce use of plastics by letting your vegetables roll around the cart, and download your music.

Go Paperless

Eliminate catalogs/junk mail/yellow pages at www.dmachoice.org.

Cool Off

Lower water heater temperature to 120 degrees. Use cold water to wash clothes, dishes and brush teeth.

Recycle

You can recycle everything, no really, everything! Go to www.realsimple.com, type in “RECYCLE A-Z” in the search bar.

Clean

Clean refrigerator coils, dryer vents and air conditioner filters! Clean machines are more energy efficient and better for your appliances.

Insulate

Insulate and seal cracks and gaps in your ducts, windows, doors, attic, basement and pipes to reduce energy costs by 30% (Consumer Reports). Bulk up window coverings to keep warm/cool and keep your furnishings from fading!

Dry Up

Turn the water off while brushing your teeth, sudsing up yourself or the dishes and set the washing machine “load size” down a notch.
