The “Binghamton Press & Sun-Bulletin” reports going on a “carbon fast” is one way to conserve energy and help the environment. A few ways to decrease your carbon footprint include: wash only full loads of laundry; turn off the TV and read a book; recycle; do not drive one day a week; avoid drinking out of plastic water bottles; and be careful in buying canned goods, as the can may be lined with a chemical called bisphenol A (BPA), which is linked to many health issues, particularly involving infants.
