10 Ways You Can Help The Planet
- make your own jello, pudding and baked goods for lunches instead of buying heavily packaged items from the store
- invest in a bamboo toothbrush which can be composted when you’re done with it
- be mindful of your purchases- if it comes in plastic wrapping and it really doesn’t need to, leave it on the shelf and look for an alternative
- bike and walk more instead of driving or use public transit or even carpooling
- quit smoking- one cigarette butt can contaminate 7 litres of water in just one hour
- support environmental groups
- shop less- find other ways to pass the time like hanging out with friends
- if you must shop, shop thrift stores
- participate in a shoreline clean-up
- help spread awareness
Together we can make a million small changes that will add up and make a huge difference!
