1. Choose reusable over single-use.
Many people each day drink beverages from disposable
cups or disposable bottles, sipping from disposable straws,
carrying disposable grocery bags, eating from disposable
plates or containers, and using disposable utensils. All that
single-use plastic has to go somewhere, and it’s had a
devastating effect on our soil, oceans, and marine life.
2. Recycle.
Recycling is such a simple thing to do, but so many people
don’t do it. Throwing the wrong items in the recycling bin
can result in an entire load being rejected, which means all
that garbage is sent back to the landfill.
3. Use fewer chemicals.
It’s hard to be sure about the long-term negative effects
chemicals can have, both on our bodies and on the planet,
so it’s best to avoid them if possible. Opt for chemical-free
lawn and garden care, all-natural beauty and hygiene items,
natural household cleaners, and organic food.
4. Use less water.
Conserving water at home is one of the easiest ways to
protect the environment
