Go Green! Protect Planet Earth!
Environmental campaigns surround us everywhere, on TV, magazines and newspapers, on the Internet and you will probably find some environmental society within your country. The problem is, whenever we hear about those campaigns, the first thing we think of is that we actually want to contribute, but our subconscious replies back telling us that in order to save the environment we are required to sacrifice our leisure and entertainment, and that is when we back off and forget about saving the environment. Well, here are some tips in which you can save the environment without actually having to abandon your leisure time.
The first basic thing you could do is the use the three R rules: Reduce, Recycle and Reuse. To reduce, you could buy durable goods that will lost longer, this will enable you to save money in the long run, another way is that you could print on two sides of the paper instead of one, and you could use cloth napkins or dish clothes instead of paper towels at home.
The second R is to recycle. Recycling is the process of manufacturing new products by using old disposed items (What is Recycling). These items usually include aluminum, glass, plastic and paper. Recycling bins could be put everywhere: in your neighborhood, schools and you can even create your own at your house! Just separate your bins into glass, paper and plastic and after that you can call companies, which are responsible for the recycling. This way you will be making the whole process easier as the street sweepers will not have to go through garbage just to separate and divide them.
