Ever wonder why there are so many people polluting the earth? Ever say to yourself: Hey, I wish that I could do more to help the environment? Have you ever thought about trying to help the earth but never really did it? Well, here are some pretty easy and skillful ideas for that green-earth desire inside you.
●Turn off your computer. By leaving it on all day you are creating more CO2 than a regular passenger would, driving to and from work in one day.
●Ride your bike or carpool(合用汽车). Obviously, you are creating less CO2 which will help the ozone(臭氧).
●Make a garden. Even simply grow some plants in your kitchen, which will help produce more oxygen while eating up some of that evil CO2.
●Buy local groceries. It creates less impact on the environment. Besides, you're supporting your local farmers.
●Recycle. You had to see this coming. But you have no idea how much you are helping the environment by simply reusing a water bottle instead of buying a huge pack at the store.
●Don't run the water while brushing. It saves you money and helps the water resources.
●Open the curtains. Natural light is much prettier and it will keep the energy usage down.
●Rechargeable batteries. You have no idea how much it takes to get rid of batteries. Do yourself a favor. Save some money and some energy.
