If you are thinking about how great or, on the contrary, small your contribution to caring for nature is already priceless. Unfortunately, there is an opinion that nothing can be changed by one person. It is fundamentally wrong - after all, by caring for nature, you set an example for others. In addition, taking care of the world around us is a tribute to self-respect, since a person is a part of nature. There are several simple and not at all complicated ways to take care of nature every day, they only require attention. How to protect nature?
Instructions
Step 1
Turn off the water. You wash the dishes and the phone rings - turn off the taps and talk calmly, and do not leave the water flowing even for a few minutes. During this time, liters are lost. And if you multiply this by the number of "onlookers" in the entire district, and then by the number of days in a year? The reserves of drinking water on Earth are far from endless, and this is worth thinking about today.
Step 2
Going on vacation to the forest, take a couple of large bags with you and collect trash after a picnic - it's not difficult at all and takes two to three minutes. Leftover plastic wrappers and bags can take hundreds of years to decompose in the soil, and metal cans can rust. Do not be too lazy to get there and throw garbage in a landfill or a special garbage dump, bypassing dumps organized by vacationers in ditches and trenches.
Step 3
By the way, about plastic bags. When we visit the store every day, we pick up products in bags made of polyethylene, which takes an extremely long time to decompose, moreover, into extremely harmful substances. Think about how much plastic you buy and throw away per week, month, year. European supermarkets have long been offering shoppers reusable bags made from durable cotton or canvas material that fold easily and fit into a bag so shoppers don't have to purchase a plastic bag every day. Get a similar bag made of durable material and put it in your bag. As a last resort, buy paper bags labeled "100% recycle".
Step 4
Save electricity - this, moreover, will allow you to reduce monthly costs and create a favorable atmosphere in the house, since electrical appliances greatly affect the energy field in the premises.
Step 5
Do not use your own car unnecessarily - this, firstly, will reduce exhaust emissions, and secondly, it will save you from stress. Walk a few kilometers with pleasant music; walking can be more beneficial than jogging.
Step 6
A great way to distract yourself and take part in collective outdoor activities is with regular Saturday clean-ups! Next time, as soon as you find out about such an event in your own backyard, do not shirk, but dress warmly and arm yourself with a shovel. Moreover, physical activity improves mood, and a neat courtyard will delight you and your neighbors for a long time to come.
