I see a couple of things we haven't tried yet. If you use a veggie based laundry soap like Seventh Generation you can recycle the wash water on ornamental plants. One year we saved the wash water and used it for flushing the you-know-what. We got our water use down to 12.33 gals per person/day. Not bad. Thanks for this list.

I have one in my kitchen and they turn all my veggie scraps into compost for me, no digging and turning required. It cost me maybe $20 total, but I did get my worms (red wrigglers) for free from a friend. Dove You could also do worm composting, also called vermiculture, and build your own worm box.
