5. Think Before You Purchase
Consider what you really need instead of
want. When buying products, it’s always
mportant to make sure you consider how
long the item would last, would you be able
to recycle, and reuse the product once
you’ve decided to buy it. By consuming
less, you dispose a less amount of waste.
Amruta Kshemkalyani, Environmental
Activist and supporter of Zero waste,
encourages individuals to go for quality
versus quantity products since long lasting
products contribute to lesser disposal on
landfills.
6. Use Public Transportation
Ditch your cars and consider making use
of public transportation, whether it means
catching a train, boarding a bus or even
walking to your destination whenever
possible. By using gas powered cars, you
tend to increase greenhouse gas emissions
which are damaging our planet.
Rasha Saleh, Environmental Conservationist
at Connect with Nature, highly recommends
ditching cars and instead walking to your
destination or using public transportation
whenever required.
7. Make a Present Even More
Memorable
Stressing on what to gift someone
whilst keeping in mind sustainability?
Environmental Expert, Arabella Willing
from Connect with Nature, suggests
gifting memorable experiences rather than
physical products. It’s always exciting to
receive a spa voucher or even a ticket
to a theme park as memories do last
forever.
8. Adopt Don’t Shop
Looking to get a new companion? Say no to
shopping for a pet and instead adopt, this
does not only make you an eco-friendly
pet owner but also helps massively in
protecting stray animals that need your
support and helps save animals being
used for breeding purposes.
