What are 4 ways of protecting the environment?

Answer 1

Use Reusable Bags

How often does a typical family shop each month? If you kept reusable bags in your car for those grocery store and other stops, you would make a huge difference in the number of plastic bags that end up in landfills, all of which will still be around when your great-grandchildren are alive. If you look around your home, you may have several cloth bags already that would be suitable.

Save Water

Time your showers. If you took a 5 minute shower every morning instead of a 15 minute one, this would save tons of water in a year as well as save you money on your water bill. Turning off the water while you soap your body and lather the shampoo in your hair as well as shave will help you save lots more. To make this easier, turn on your knobs to where you like them for the perfect shower temperature, and mark the faucets with red fingernail polish so you know exactly where to turn them.

Go Digital

Could you read an ebook instead of a paper version? Do online banking instead of getting a statement in the mail? Pay bills online instead of using an envelope?

Cloth Not Paper

It's been said that using cloth diapers is the single most important way a parent can help the environment. It does keep around 2 TONS of plastic out of the landfills. If you don't have the heart to do cloth diapers, then at least choose biodegradable diapers like gDiapers. By the same token, microfiber cloths for cleaning save money and are more effective than paper towels for household cleaning.

Drive Green

While it may not be in your best interest to buy a hybrid right now (some experts say there is less impact on the environment if you drive your current car until it cannot be repaired rather than trading it in for a hybrid), you can certainly get rid of that lead foot. Not only will you be less stressed and not have to sweat it when a police car pulls behind you, but you'll use far less gas if you accelerate slowly. Keeping your car in good repair can also help. And obviously, combining errands as much as possible and not leaving your car to idle are also good ideas.
