While there are a ton of obvious ways to be more earth conscious:
- turn off electricity and water when not it's not needed like when you're not in the room!
- take your name off junk mail lists
- don't leave your chargers plugged in when not in use
- use natural cleaning products
- avoid using disposable products; silverware, razors...
Here a maybe less obvious way; watch how much plastic you consume:
- get Q-tips with cardboard stems not plastic
- tampons with cardboard applicators not plastic
- eggs in paper cartons not plastic
Thanks for reminding me of such easy ways to be more conscious of the environment - no extra effort required.
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I think you can also call this smarter, common sense living.
