Everything's gone 'green' these days (even us), so we're happy to share some helpful hints on how to become more environmentally friendly AND save money, which we think is pretty awesome. Especially -- quite frankly -- the saving money part.

The Digerati Life blog shares these tips:

2 Go paperless.
There are so many benefits from going paperless, mainly by signing up for online services. Your information will be more secure, you’ll save a lot of paper and help businesses cut down on the costs of mailings. Imagine having to get rid of an extra filing cabinet or two at home!

#3 Telecommute.
If only all our work places and offices allowed us to work at home more often. During this age of outsourcing, you’d think this mentality of conducting work remotely would be more widespread. We’ve certainly made strides in the direction of workplace flexibility, but it’s still not enough in my opinion. I live about an hour away from where I work and not only is commuting a huge drain to my energy and pocket, it’s also a gas guzzler. With one day a week telecommuting privileges, I could save a tank of gas and $50 each month.

#4 Use mass transit, try car pools or rethink your mode of transportation.
Consider mass transportation if you have access to trains and subways. In my experience, it has been more inefficient time-wise to ride the trains, but not entirely so if you can somehow manage to do some work while on board or even just get some shut-eye. I’ve also seen some car pooling services and spots around the city. How about a bike? Not so sure how ready we are with this sort of thing. However, we can participate in our local city’s Spare The Air programs, including the act of keeping our cars well-tuned, maintained and smog free.

#5 Turn everything off when not in use.
One of the simplest tips to follow — turn off all your lights and anything that feeds off of electricity while not in use. But see here, the holiday season will soon be upon us so how do we enjoy our Halloween and Christmas lights? With new energy efficient holiday lighting of course.
