Simple things of material impact

I never get as irritated as I do when I see stupidity around me when I drive... the auto rickshaw that drives at 20mph but on the right most lane... the BEST bus that has to stop right at the middle of the road... the people who just can't learn to walk on the pavement... this list is endless.
However the point of this post is not to crib about what others should do. It is about little changes that we can bring about in our daily lives and how everyone's lives can be better if we do so. The list below follows very simple rules:
1. They must be inherently simple to follow
2. They must benefit others (apart from us of course)
3. They must be part of our daily lives.

So here goes
1. Take responsibility to be the one to switch off lights. This might mean your house while leaving, the conference room after the conference etc.
2. Follow simple rules that avoid wastage: don't keep the tap on while shaving/ brushing etc., don't always take a shower, but rather use the bucket and mug, ensure all electric and electronic appliances are switched off rather than put on standby
3. Don't honk on the roads unless necessary
4. Use the pavements when walking on the road
5. Try and organize a car pool. If not possible at least ensure you gift a lift to someone so that he doesnt use a taxi. Can't blame people for not using public transport given the pathetic state of the same in our country
6. Simple ones like not throwing garbage on the road, continues
These are just initial starting thoughts. As I think of more will update.
