Well here is a great place to start. As part of the very first Blog Action Day, I have decided to post about how I plan to be more friendly to nature in the future. I try to always throw my trash in a waste basket, pick up trash I see laying around, but that just doesn’t quite cut it when you think about the amount of garbage that just gets tossed out of a moving vehicle or floating in lakes and oceans.
My Goals
Right now my consumption of paper towels, and paper plates/bowls is very high. Instead of using these I am going to start using cloth towels, and glass plates/bowls. Also I would like to start recycling beer cans/bottles, paper, tin foil, and other random types of recyclables that normally get thrown in the trash along with everything else.
My Challenge
I challenge all 3 or 4 of my readers to do something more than they would do normally to help nature. Below is a list of some simple things you can do to help the environment.
- Plant a tree
- Recycle junk mail, cans, glass
- Replace all your light bulbs with energy saving bulbs
- Try your hand at composting
- Quit driving your car as much
- Shut off electricity using gadgets around your house
- Run your washer and dryer in the morning or at night
Everyone can in one way or another do something helpful for the environment. Please leave a comment telling me how what you already do, and ways you would like to improve your nature friendliness.
