（A）
You can be proud of yourselves , even if you can only make one or two of these green changes . The goal here is to limit carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases , which are closely associated with the big problem of global-warming .
Strategy 1: Bring your own cup to Starbucks
You’ll get a 10-cent discount , and it’s one less paper cup to end up in a dustbin. The store won’t create more waste when they throw away a cup .
Strategy 2: Turn off your computer
When in standby mode , your PC is still using energy . Turning off a monitor for 40 hours a week may only save $5 a month , but it reduces CO2 by 750 pounds .
Strategy 3： Reuse plastic bags .
Instead of throwing away 100 billion plastic bags a year , try and get a second , third , or tenth use out of them . Better yet , next time you shop , try a reusable bag . You’re reducing pollution . The amount of oil it would take to make just 14 plastic bags would run your car for one mile .
Strategy 4 :Use recycled paper in the bathroom
Most of the toilet paper we use is made from trees found in forests previously untouched by humans . If every household replaced one roll of toilet paper with a recycled one , 424,000 trees would still be standing . Look for eco-paper towels too.
Strategy 5: By energy -efficient appliances .
Replace the old fridge with an Energy Star appliance and you’ll use 15 percent less energy . It might be a little expensive to buy , but you’ll save money on your electricity bills and help the environment . If we all used one Energy Star appliance at home , it would be like planting 1.7 million acres of new trees .
Strategy 6 : Plant a tree
Adding green to your garden is beautiful and earth-pleasing . Just one tree will help make cleaner air and save the environment from 5,000 pounds of hot carbon dioxide each year.
