Want to jump on the green bandwagon, but not sure where to start? Well, worry no more - Angelo Surmelis, the host of HGTV's popular "Rate My Space" reality show, has you covered like old furniture.

1 Don't automatically discard your old furniture. Think about refurbishing and reupholstering sofas and chairs before investing in newer styles.

2 Use energy-efficient appliances and lighting as well as low-flow toilets.

3 For kitchens and bathrooms, consider using environmentally friendly flooring materials such as bamboo, cork or recycled rubber.

4 When building or repairing decks and terraces, use reclaimed lumber.
