What makes a city green?
Saving the planet does not have to be difficult.
There are some suggestions for saving the Earth. For example, some experts suggest that we walk
more and not use vehicles too often because carbon dioxide (CO 2) from those vehicles is harmful.
However, it seems to be tricky for us to follow the advice. There are several easy and helpful things we
can do at home to help save the environment.
Use fewer plastic containers.
Usually, plastic shopping bags or water bottles are single-use items. In other words, we can use those
containers once only. They will end up in landfills when we finish using them, and will pollute the
land over time. Try using reusable bags, cups, or water bottles next time.
Use less paper.
Paper tissues are cheap and easy to use while we are at home. However, paper production produces
some gases that are harmful to the environment. We sometimes overuse them for a simple purpose.
Try to use a cloth we can wash after use for our cleanup.
Avoid wasting water around the house.
It is not easy to know how much water we use every day. We also do not usually think about where
our wastewater can arrive. The oceans seem to be the final destinations. So, use the water correctly and
less wastewater will reach the seas.
