My husband and I need to have this motto in Spanish.

We have a small place in Costa Rica and would like to have an energy savings note to the renters.

We would like to have this motto in Spanish and English for both our English-speaking guests and our Spanish-speaking guests.

Thank you.

reduce, reutiliza, recicla

This is the Tu/informal imperative form

Stuck in some spaces and changed an "i" to an "a" in imperative. Hope you don't mind my toying with your perfect answer. - 0057ed01, FEB 1, 2010
