Ten Easy Sustainable Practices To Put Into Your Life

With World Environment Day this Friday, Here are ten ways to make a positive difference in the environment without exuding too much effort in doing so.

1) Public Transportation or Carpooling
2) Have your own coffee mug or water bottle, instead of using plastic/paper cups at the store
3) Purchase foods in bulk. It uses less plastic for a higher quantity of food. Just make sure the expiry date isn’t too soon!
4) Bring your own plastic bags to the grocery market
5) Turn off the lights whenever you leave a room. Saves energy, and money off your electricity bill.
6) Get a water filter instead of turning the tap on and waiting for the water to cool. Even a small Britta filter that you put in the fridge can work well.
7) Instead of letting the tap run while washing dishes, get a bucket or tray, fill it with soap, and use that
8) Take plugs for electronic devices out once you are done charging.
9) Buy produce from local farmers and farmers markets.
10) Last but definitely not least, recycle!
