More Americans Resolve to Go Green in 2010

More than half of the American population likely made an environmentally focused New Year's resolution, according to a poll released by Tiller Research. Fifty-three percent of American adults are committed to a greener new year, an increase from 49 percent of respondents two years ago.

Many are making ecofriendly efforts as part of day-to-day routines. In fact, almost half of the 1,000 polled by Matthew Greenwald & Associates said they purchased products made by an environmentally or socially responsible company, and at least half said they avoided products thought to potentially harm the environment. Eighty-four percent of respondents said they plan to recycle more.

From recycling to reuse of everything from shopping bags to cell phones—these are easy ways to be ecofriendly. What’s your green resolution for this year?
