    I have no front lawns anymore, just dead weeds I mow every now and then.
    Back lawn gets watered once a week for two minutes in winter, and a total of 45 minutes a week in summer.
    I wash my car when it rains, otherwise it's far and few between, especially this winter :(.
    When running errands in the car I multi-task and make a round to get it all done in one swoop.
    .
    Conserve electricity where possible and switch most all lighting to super efficient LED bulbs/lamps.
    .
    It takes less effort than most believe, it's just hard to change old habits for many.
    I love my wife, my wife loves me.:encouragement:

    About the same.
    Have all the sprinkers down to 3 mins a cycle and each cycle runs 3 times a week. I even capped some sprinkers since they were just watering were water was alrady sprayed.
    Car gets detailed every 6 months and does not see the car wash between those unless I am using the Dry Clean stuff I have at the house.
    All light bulbs have been changed and lights outside are all on sensors during the winter (then off once the sun says up past 7pm).
    Errands are planned to avoid multiple trips and circling back and forth on the weekends.
