Every year a person harms the environment more and more. Causing damage to nature, people reduce the quality of their lives. There are some simple tips that can be used to improve the standard of living and harm nature in smaller quantities.
Instruction manual
1
Use energy-saving bulbs instead of incandescent bulbs, which consume about 4 times more energy than the first ones. The high cost of such lamps very quickly pays off due to low power consumption and long service life.
2
Use cloth bags instead of bags. Reasonably discard the free packages offered in stores and supermarkets. Reuse existing packages to avoid buying new ones all the time. This also applies to small and large packages.
3
Use reusable containers for dishes instead of disposable ones. When choosing products, buy as much as possible those that are not in plastic packaging. It is best to purchase products that are placed in a cardboard box. This applies to milk, kefir, eggs and cereals.
4
Use batteries instead of batteries, because they will have to be thrown out much less often. Hand in empty glass bottles, used paper, and energy-saving lamps and used batteries to specialized collection points.
5
Save natural resources. Turn off the lights, water, gas, household appliances, if at the moment there is no need to use them.
6
Take out the trash after visiting your friends on a picnic. Take away waste, leftover food, empty bottles, pieces of paper, disposable dishes, etc. It is best to bury or burn organic waste in the same place.
7
Choose for the New Year instead of a living artificial Christmas tree. Every year, on the eve of the New Year holidays, millions of Christmas trees and pines are cut down. And after two weeks they are thrown into a landfill. Keep in mind that these trees only grow 40 cm per year.
8
Choose clothes and shoes made of natural material. Remember that a lot of natural resources are spent on synthetics. And the recycling process in this case is quite complicated and long.
9
Do not use your personal vehicle without special need. Practice walking. Automobile exhaust pollutes the air very much, especially in large cities. Taking this into account and adhering to this advice, you will at least slightly, but still reduce emissions into the atmosphere. And walks in the fresh air will positively affect your health.
10
Take care of paper. Remember that hundreds of trees are cut down to make it. Use electronic media whenever possible. Print on both sides of the paper. Before discarding an unnecessary notebook, tear out all available clean sheets of paper so that you can use them later if necessary.
