Don"t Be Mean, Be Green!
I bet there is no one who loves to park their car in sun but we still don't seem to appreciate the idea of growing trees.
We need to play our roles and be a part of the solution, not the pollution.
There are hundreds of super easy ways to make your contribution in protecting the environment.
Here are a few simple and easy things one can do to keep the nature from getting hurt: Shopping Bags - One of the most important yet doable things to support a healthy environment is avoiding the use of plastic shopping bags.
These plastic bags are biodegradable, which means they cannot be decomposed into its basic elements.
We can simply replace them with the brown paper bag or the reusable bags made of cotton, depending on what you're planning to shop.
Diapers - On average they take about 500 years to decompose.
I know, ideally, there is nothing that can replace diapers perfectly but people can use cloth instead as a very good alternative.
These cotton diapers have also been made available in the stores, over the past few years.
They might not be as handy as the usual diapers but they can be reused several times and they are so comfy that the chances of getting rashes on the kids' skin become very bleak.
Dispose waste properly - Keep the neighborhood clean.
Properly dispose-off the waste.
If you throw waste on the street or keep dumping it in the backyard, it might end up being harmful for you as it begins to decompose.
The gases that come out of that waste can be dangerous for your health and others living in the neighborhood.
Plant Trees - We can heal the wounded environment by planting trees.
With more trees around, you will get to breath in cleaner air.
As we all know, trees helps in recycling the polluted air and convert it back into fresh oxygen.
This will not only keep the people healthy and active but also reduce the risk of many lungs related diseases.
Bulk Buying - Yes, it is not only eco-friendly but also environment friendly.
By buying in bulk you are not only saving some dollars but also saving the planet.
Many FMCG products that you buy come with plastic packing and if you buy a bigger bottle of shampoo or detergent, you are saving on packaging that you will eventually have to dispose-off.
Burn less fuel - Try not you use the car too often.
The fuel you burn while driving your car hurts the ozone layer on the atmosphere.
Try to take a walk if you are going somewhere in the neighborhood.
Or use the subway or the bus service for routine travelling.
The best option would be to buy a Mini Electric Scooter for short and long distance travel both.
Volo makes these scooters with a seat which even adults can use for their routine travel whether it is grocery shopping, college or work.
I believe these few tips help you become a better citizen without making too much of an effort.
