No matter how much we talk about sustainable and green living, but when it comes to reality check, we`re all found guilty. You might have paid heed to reduce, reuse and recycle all the products, but there are little habits that make us guilty of a few infractions. How?
Well, for instance maybe you keep the tap water running while brushing teeth, or maybe you end up shopping for things you might not even need in the first place, or you use plastic disposables instead of eco-friendly disposable tableware. So let`s be real! We all have been there and done that.
But the good news is -that even if you are not ready to fully prepared or embrace a sustainable way of living, there are plenty of practical changes that are super easy to adopt. They will make a serious impact on our surroundings without drastically changing your lifestyle.
Here are 3 simple ways to turn eco-friendly:
Cut Down on Your Water Consumption
We all know how vital water is for our lives. So why waste it? Turn off the faucet while you are brushing your teeth. Try washing dishes by hand and wash full loads of laundry in cold water as it saves energy; keep a pitcher of water in the fridge and use a bucket instead of shower.
Break-up with Plastic Disposables
We always emphasize in our articles and blogs about the harmful impacts of plastic on our environment. Hence, switch to eco-friendly disposables and replace plastic cutlery with biodegradable paper bowls, sugarcane bagasse plates, and compostable catering trays. These tableware are chemical-free as they are made from natural resources like sugarcane pulp. They are 100% biodegradable and you can compost them too in a composting bin.
Shut off & Unplug
Shutting off your electronic devices on Earth Day or World Environment Day is just not enough (it is a good & eco-friendly move though). However, only doing it more often will bring the desired results. Simply develop a habit of switching off all the lights before you step out in the morning and unplug all the electrical equipment that you aren`t using during the day or while you sleep.
While these changes may appear simple to you, they can bring a powerful impact on our surroundings in a positive way. These 3 eco-friendly tips are simple, clever and just plain-useful for every lazy activist!
