Israel’s Environmental Protection Ministry has released a mobile application intended to teach people how to live “green” and save money.

Advice from the app, titled “Environment—Let’s think green,” includes not consuming bottled water, using energy-efficient light bulbs, and avoiding significant acceleration while driving in order to conserve fuel.

“After years in which we grew accustomed to advertisements that encourage us to consume more, we are standing on the same stage and calling for smart consumerism,” Environmental Protection Minister Gilad Erdan said in a statement.
