The big question is: ‘How can we be more environmentally friendly?’ Well, here are some useful tips.
A Food
Have you ever thought, ‘Where does my food come from?’ Well, the answer is…everywhere. Green beans from Morocco, coffee from Brazil, and maybe apples from New Zealand. This food travels with lots of transport, which means lots of petrol and pollution. So, why not eat locally produced food? It’s fresh and it doesn’t have to travel so far. It definitely cuts down on your meal’s carbon footprint.
B Electricity
One of the biggest problems on the planet today is the growing need for energy. One of the most common forms of energy is electricity. The more we produce, the more pollution we create. My suggestion is to turn everything off in your house when you’re not using it. This includes light bulbs, TVs and computers. Simple, but effective.
C Rainforests
Forests are some of the most valuable habitats on Earth, and different species of animals and plants live in them. But every year, a rainforest the size of England is destroyed. Everyone should help reduce this problem by planting more trees, buying eco-friendly paper, recycling anything that’s made of paper and shopping smart. Buy food that doesn’t have a lot of packaging.
D Rubbish
‘Reduce, Reuse and Recycle’. Every year, we throw away tons of waste—glass, plastic, cans, paper and cardboard. However, this can all be recycled. Don’t throw your rubbish away; see if you can use it again, or if not, recycle it, so it can be used again.
