Inspiration for the one minute movement: Living green in NYC

We've been celebrating our NYC roots this month as What You Can Do screens at the Brooklyn Web Festival (October 9-10) and NYC Web Fest (November 13-14). When we launched What You Can Do more than 5 years ago, we found plenty of inspiration for the one minute movement to change the world in our hometown. Living in the city can encourage greener lifestyle choices such as taking public transportation, minimizing waste (to accommodate our tiny apartments) and volunteering through the many leading nonprofits based in the city. We were excited to see WalletHub recently rank New York City #1 on their list of America's Greenist Cities: https://wallethub.com/edu/most-least-green-cities/16246/

Below are NYC inspired tips to help our environment and our communities. Please comment below to let us know your one minute ideas for living greener in NYC or your hometown.
