How To Be More Environment Friendly In Everyday Life

March 27, 2018 by Annie

It is important to make a conscious choice to change your actions in order to change your impact on the environment. There are a few ways that you can help the environment by changing the way you live your daily life.

Buy Local

This is the first and best step to being more-friendly to the environment. Local businesses have less impact on the environment than big corporations, as they are focused on continuing the success of their farm or business and want to keep the land alive and well. Larger corporations are invested in achieving financial success, and their focus on how they affect the environment is little to none. Shop local and keep your community alive.

Try Composting

Nature’s processes all involve using materials for other purposes. When a body dies, it is welcomed back into the environment to provide nutrients for the plants, which keep the animals alive. The cycle perpetuates because it is very strongly dependent on the repetition of each step. With the thought that the environment recycles, why would it not make sense for humans to do so as well?

Natural materials that are placed in plastic garbage bags and taken to the landfill can lead to the materials being contained for as long as 1,000 years. In that case, those nutrients are lost and the potential to reduce impact on the environment is also lost. Individuals that opt to compost their natural refuse can see the difference they make to the environment and the amount of garbage that is not carried away to the landfill to impact the environment in a negative manner.

Be More Environmentally Conscious

There are simple decisions, like actively avoiding littering, educating others about the importance of our environment and protect local wildlife in order to preserve the eco-system as we currently know it. It is important for all of these actions to become a part of your lifestyle. This helps you to be eco-friendly and also to make sure you are aware of your environment and what goes on within it.

Conserve and Replace Resources

Conserve water and plant more trees. This is a two-fold approach that not only ensures you are aware of your personal effect on the environment and the measures you can take to reduce that impact, but you also do take measures to make sure the environment is refreshed, and resources can be renewed at a future date.

Cut Back on Chemical Usage

Cleaning products and other materials within the home can contain chemicals that contaminate resources like water, leading to less water available for animal and human use. For those that want to help the environment, the best measure is to cut back on the usage of chemicals and thereby reduce the risk for contamination and improve the way the world moves forward from today. The future is dependent on the actions of humans today and cutting back on the use of chemicals is a great way to show you are serious about protecting the environment.

Certain products can be exceptional quality and also can be valuable because they are produced in a way to be less impactful to the environment. It is a good idea to research the way products are made and if they have a detrimental impact on the environment before you begin or continue purchasing said products.

Like how my kids make fun of my texts as if I don't know how to use emojis (I DO!). Now that I have a bit more time - since my kids don't want to hang out with me (teenagers), I have taken up blogging.
