With world problems such as peak oil and water shortages on the horizon it makes sense to adopt a more sustainable life style; First lets take a look at recycling; it is said if paper is recycled the amount of energy saved is over 35 percent; Also, if aluminum is recycled the energy savings is greater than ninety percent. Moreover, it is easier on the environment, and it is less junk going into land fills. Recycling is the way of the future; it is a win-win for everyone.
So many people plug in an electrical appliance with no thought about how the electrical power is generated. Most electrical power on the plant Earth comes from coal fired plants. Next time you get ready to use anything electrical remember it has a carbon footprint. When you aren’t using the TV turn it off; When you are away from home turn the heat or Air Conditioner down; when you aren’t using a light turn it off. There is no free lunch the more electrical power you use, the more pollutions are released into the air.
Water is one of the most important resources on the planet, and it should be treated as such. Next time you take a shower try to keep it short as possible; when you brush your teeth please don’t leave the water running; use what you need and turn off the tap. Please what ever you do don’t dump toxic substances into water such as motor oil. it contaminates thousands of gallons of fresh water. Do your part adopt a sustainable life style today.
