This was my project for geography. Here's a list of small things you can do to make a BIG difference - - Recycle everything you can: newspapers, cans, glass, aluminum foil and pans, motor oil, scrap metal etc. - Investigate local recycling centers that take items your garbage hauler doesn't (scrap paper, plastics, appliances, etc.). - Save your kitchen scraps for the compost pile. - Try to use phosphate-free laundry and dish soaps. - Avoid the use of household pesticides. Fly swatters work very well. - Clean your windows with vinegar and water instead of chemical products. - Use cold water in the washer unless it's necessary to use warm or hot. - Use washable rags, not paper towels, for cleaning up spills and other household chores. - Crumpled-up newspapers are great for washing windows. - Use cloth, not paper, napkins. - Don't put hazardous substances down your drain or in your trash (paint thinner, furniture polish, etc.). Dispose of them on designated hazardous waste collection days. - Don't use electrical appliances for things you can easily do by hand. - Re-use brown paper bags and grocery plastic bags (recyclable) to line your trash can or waste basket. Re-use bread bags, butter tubs, etc. Start making a difference. Make a change with one click. Share this video & act. Thank you.
