Let's face it, we are all responsible in small part for climate change. And what's more, the problems are bad, we have to admit.
Maybe you deny this, well, what about all the bottles you threw out, or the glass that you didn't drop at the recycling depot, or even just the light bulb you forgot to turn off?
It is unlikely that you have lived the life of a caveman, in total respect for Earth, surviving off animal remains and raw vegetables. Although you have contributed to Earth's slow death, you can begin doing your part to repair the destruction man has inflicted.
Even by turning all you electrical possessions off when you are not using them, you are reducing power consumption. Electronics, even when on standby, use quite a bit of electricity. And the best thing is that, not only does turning them off help the planet, but it is also cheaper for you.
Try to avoid using plastic straws. After they have been used, straws go directly to the dump, crowding landfills that have accumulated tons of once used plastic straws throughout the years.
Perhaps the most effective method of going green is to live by the three Rs - reuse, reduce and recycle. Repurpose things like water bottles and newspaper, cut back on energy consumption by leaving fewer lights on and recycle items like paper and plastic. The thee Rs may be pass but they remain relevant and effective.
You can bring your new green lifestyle to your work office as well by recycling any and all unneeded paper products. Set up a workplace policy to get everyone to contribute.
There are still a lot of ways on how you can help Mother Nature heal and most of them are quite easy, actually. The trick here is to feel the effects of the climate change, the need for cleaner water and the responsibility to contribute to change.
