Ditch Your Wheels for the Week
Greenhouse gas emissions are the chief contributor to climate change worldwide. Therefore they are also the main thing that pose a threat to your kids enjoying a happy future. So can't you sacrifice the main offender – your car – for at least a couple of days, if not your whole working week? If you could keep off the road for just two days a week, you'd reduce greenhouse gas emissions by roughly 1,600 pounds per year. Besides, if you can get fitter by walking or riding to work instead, isn't that a good thing too? And come to think of it, isn't walking a lot cheaper than driving as well?
Stop Moaning, Start Recycling
The number of people who complain that they can't be bothered to separate plastics, glass and paper is truly shocking. Don't these people give a hoot about what kind of world they leave behind for future generations? Quite simply, you can help to reduce pollution significantly, simply by putting your empty bottles and cans in a different bin. It's not rocket science. But, given the environmental ramifications of not recycling, it is absolutely essential.
Composting Is Common Sense
Some people seem to think that composting is a pastime reserved solely for ex-hippies with horticultural pretensions. But they couldn't be more wrong. Composting is for anyone who doesn't want to see kilo upon kilo of waste sent to landfill on a weekly basis. Not only is it incredibly easy to do, but the benefits go beyond just reducing pollution; compost can be broken down to make amazing fertilizer for the soil in your garden. Whether you plan to plant flowers, fruit or vegetables, there's nothing better.
