From a very young age we are taught the 3 'Rs;' REDUCE, REUSE, and RECYCLE. Here are just a few things you can do around your home to take care of our planet on Earth Day and beyond.
Earth Day is a global initiative that was first celebrated in 1970 after a tragic oil spill that devastated the ocean wildlife of Santa Barbara, California. The initiative has grown from a local demonstration to a global event in over 190 countries worldwide. Earth provides humans with the resources to sustain everyday life as we know it but our footprint continues to have a negative impact to the environment and the planet that we may take for granted. So how do we help save the planet we call home?
Try replacing one drive a week with a walk, a bike ride, or a carpool.
Leaving the house, turn the lights off, no excuses!
More and more clothing every year are ending up in landfills. Try shopping sustainably or second hand whenever you can! And before you toss that gently used clothing item, consider donation instead.
We all live off coffees and teas but with 365 days in a year, that's a lot of single use waste! Try to B.Y.O.C (bring your own container) whenever allowed.
Refill stations are available everywhere you go, and home water filtration is as easy as it has ever been. Opt to skip the plastic bottles from the store and fill up at home. Find yourself in a bind and have to use a plastic bottle? Consider ways that that bottle can serve a different purpose after it's empty.
Whether it is using reusable totes at the store or bagless trash options, there is always a way to avoid plastic bags. Remember, paper bags are a better option than plastic if reusable isn't an option. Check out this video from the Earth Day Network on how to check your plastic use around the house.
Make sure all of your single use materials are either recyclable or biodegradable.
Innovations in the world of plastics is creating a brighter future. Keep an eye out for plastic-like materials made from corn and other organic products.
Check your recyclables and your local regulations. Sometimes things that you may think are recyclable are in fact not!
