Use the least, reuse and recycle
Recycling is one of the most obvious and easiest ways to be environmentally friendly. Make it easier by placing a garbage box and recycling box in the kitchen, bathroom and any place where more waste arises. Paper and card is easy to separate and they are some of the most valuable materials for recycling. A small compost becomes the smallest garden and also improves a great free mixture or soil by food waste. Reduce food waste by using excessive purchases and using the leftover items.
Reduce the household emission
Use cold water settings on washing machines to avoid CO2 emissions associated with generating electricity to heat water. If you are changing a device, take a high energy -saving device for it – now most of the EU labels will be rated A to G, where A is the best, and annual energy. The consumption will be listed in KWH (the less the better). Switch to energy -saving LED light bulbs, which are immediately turned on and run longer than tungsten or halogen bulbs, while using less power throughout the use of use.
Use renewable energy
Switch to a power supplier that uses renewable means for your electricity, so you can avoid fossil fuel. Renewable sources include sources such as hydro, solar, wind and even anarobic digeston, where animals and vegetable waste are processed to remove methane -rich gas, which is burned. Now there are more green energy suppliers than ever, so you should find someone to meet your needs. Large energy companies have understood the growing environmental awareness of consumers and offer green electricity tariffs, and there are several small suppliers.
Increase insulation
A quarter of your home heat can come out of the ceiling, so add the insulation of the equivalent to 270 mm mineral valve. Most of the homes built since the 1920s have cavity walls, but since the 1990s, the insulation has been common. It can be injected through holes in the walls by a specialist company. For more benefits, strong walls and floors can also be given insulation. If you do not have double glazing in your home, this is a valuable upgrade, though it can be expensive. But draft -proofing can be a very cheap and effective way to reduce fuel bills.
Change your daily travel method
Working from home in 2020 has become commonplace for many, and from an environmental point of view there are also benefits – energy use decreases and emissions decrease. If you go outside, consider different routes that are easy for the environment. Can you walk or cycle instead of driving a car? Many European governments have announced a plan to encourage more people to walk and cycle.
Eat a low -impact diet
To reduce the effects of environment, eat ‘food miles’, to reduce the environmental effects of food transportation. Growing home yourself is the best way and even if you do not have time or space for it, you can easily apply some delicious salad leaves on the window stand. Whenever possible buy food from local producers and find a sustainable packaging that loses weight, and thus reduce transportation energy consumption – nowadays alcohol is also available in paper bottles.
Make a sustainable purchase
Find products that are designed to repair instead of throwing on a break – If a retailer cannot advise you about it, go to someone else who can give such advice. Support the brands that minimize packaging, and use sustainable and reusable methods wherever needed, so as to avoid single use plastic as far as possible.
Adopt a green attitude
Green life is about to take the most of the source by taking the most of the environment by choosing sustainable powers wherever possible. So make the purchase decisions carefully. Re -use the waste so that we can get the most out of the content used. Instead of throwing unwanted items, move them forward. Green thinking is not a difficult task – it may be fun too. As a person we cannot change the world, but if we all contribute, we can definitely make a difference, and as these suggestions say, this is not a difficult task. And the time and hard work you do is invest in the future – for us, our children and the planet.If you drive, take good care of your car – simple tasks like tire pressure can also increase fuel use and accelerate the gastrointestinal.
