What are you doing for Earth Day


momoko~ , Sunday, 8th of August 2010 01:30:27 AM

Not just today, but everyday.

Some simple tips:
1) Use a

reusable water bottle. (Stainless steel is the best!)
2) When you go

3) If you have plastic

recycle (your local grocery store may have a bin where you can deposit

your old grocery bags.)
4) When you're not using an electrical 
appliance, off it and unplug it from the plug point.
5) Recycle as 
much as you can.
6) Wait until you get a lot of dirty dishes to fill 
up the dish washer and then wash. If you manually wash your dishes, do not 
let water run when you're applying soap.
7) Try buying less packaged 
products and if you are facilitating on different products, buy the product 
that is recyclable so that it does not end up in a landfill.
8) 
Carpool.
9) Buy products in bulk. If buying in bulk is too much, you 
can buy something and split the product and cost in half with a neighbor or 
a friend.
10) If there is sunlight outside, open the curtains and 
turn off your lights.
11) Make a compost out of things like banana 
peels or vegetable/fruit shavings. Then put it in your garden and watch 
those flowers sprout.
12) Time your showers and try to save water.
