Steps I take to save our planet.

Our planet is very susceptible to pollution from various aspects of human life. We spend a lot of natural resources for factories that pollute our planet with various toxic wastes. A huge number of trees are cut down for the production of consumer products (paper, tables, chairs). But all this is done in order to get money to buy the same natural resources that we lack. It sounds like a vicious circle… Thousands of animals in rivers, seas, and oceans are killed by smothering debris that gets there. The environment can't take care of itself. The gases that come from factories create a Green house effect that started global warming.

I'm afraid to live in a world where people think only about themselves and how to meet their needs. That's why I offer you several ways you can also participate in environmental protection.

1. Use plastic bags several times. I'm sure everyone at home has a so-called bag of bags. when you go for a walk, put one of these bags in your bag. Who knows, you may have to go to the store and buy so many products that it will not fit in your everyday bag and you will have to buy a package again. You can also opt out of them altogether by buying or sewing a bag out of fabric.

2. Unplug the charger from the wall outlet. Most chargers consume energy even when the device is not connected to them.

3. You can use natural light. Do not hang the windows, daylight is much better for the eyes and saves energy.

4. Buy more local products. We don't know where the same fruits and vegetables will come from, or how many trucks.

5. Hand over the accumulated bottles and paper.

6. Buy paper plates or cups for the road or for a picnic, not plastic ones. Plastic decomposes for a very long time.

7. Do not throw it anywhere and do not leave garbage. There are special garbage cans for this. Almost all countries of the world have separate bins (for paper, plastic, glass, and General garbage)

I hope that this small number of examples will make you think about how little it takes to save at least a piece of our beautiful land.

Let's keep our planet together!
