It is no coincidence that foreigners were the first to come to this - now most of their packaging is recycled, agriculture and horticulture are carried out according to a soil-friendly scheme, and all products undergo mandatory environmental control. In our country, at the state level, strict restrictions or prohibitions have not yet been introduced, but each person has the power to make a small contribution to protecting the environment.

Instruction manual
1
Watch how you spend water. Pure water, whipping freely from a water tap, can be not only a source of huge bills, but also a cause of pollution of water bodies. After all, when you pour clean water into the sewer, it mixes with dirty water and sewage there. The flow of contaminated water passes through the treatment system, but, of course, is not completely purified. Such conditionally purified water enters the river again, leading to its pollution by chemical and organic waste. It turns out that you just like that, through negligence, increased the amount of dirty water in your own area. Try to use clean water sparingly.

If you are going somewhere in nature, be sure to bring along more bags and garbage bags to collect everything that could harm the environment. Burning fires and smoking in the forest should be done very carefully, but fires do much less harm to biocenoses than mountains of garbage and substances that do not decompose naturally. Remains of human presence not only spoil the appearance of glades and edges, but can also serve as a source of illness and death of many wild animals and birds. Always clean up all rubbish behind you and, if possible, try to clear glades and forests of rubbish left by others.

Take care of clean air. Avoid using aerosol cans, gas deodorants and varnishes. If you have the opportunity to ride a bicycle or roller skates - use it.

Never incinerate industrial and technical waste, as well as plastic, rubber or other chemical derivatives. The products of combustion of these substances are harmful to the environment and special plants should be engaged in their disposal.
note
If you notice a leak of a hazardous substance or an accumulation of gas, you must contact the police or emergency services in your area. It is possible that nothing terrible is happening, but it is better to be vigilant.
