Sustainability is closely related to our lives and refers to saving valuable resources such as water and electricity. Because we only have one common home and resources are limited, if we don't protect it, it will be difficult for us to live happily.
The first is to reduce the use of single-use plastic cutlery. Single-use plastic cutlery is representative of the least efficient products. They are made of permanent materials, but they can only be used once before they are discarded. Just imagine how much plastic you can save with sustainable cutlery if you wash it yourself? Especially the waste caused by plastic straws. Once you've used them, they can't be used anymore. Reusable woven bags can also replace plastic bags when shopping at the supermarket, further reducing the use of plastic.
Second, if you really need to use a single-use plastic bag, reuse it as much as possible. Good quality plastic bags can be reused more than 10 times. Because a plastic bag takes at least 100 years to degrade, a plastic cup takes 200 years. This means that you have left this world and it is still there. Therefore, minimize its impact on the planet.
Third, if your workplace is not far from home, you can choose to walk or bike, and take public transportation instead of driving. Or you can carpool to work with your colleagues, so you can reduce your carbon footprint, save money, and maybe meet new people!
Fourth, adhere to garbage classification. If you want to integrate the concept of green environmental protection into your life, you have to do a good job of garbage classification in daily life. This is to practice the concept of green environmental protection from actions and do a good job in garbage classification, which can turn waste into treasure and increase waste. Utilize utilization, realize resource saving.
