Do your part to reduce waste by choosing reusable products instead of disposables. Buying products with minimal packaging (including the economy size when that makes sense for you) will help to reduce waste.
- You reduce emissions of greenhouse gases through efficiency in your home,
- use alternative fuels and energy sources.
- Stop burning down forests to create farmland,
- Use energy sources that do not produce large amounts of greenhouse gases.
- ride bikes to school or walk
- Reduce reuse and recycle
- All people can slow down global warming by cutting down on their electricity use, gas, and other things that produce carbon dioxide.
- Buy energy efficient bulbs
- Trees absorb carbon dioxide, so plant trees (planting four is the equivalent of taking 100,000 cars' carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere for a year!)
- drive energy efficient cars such as electric, hybrid, and flex-fuel cars.
- Drive less per week by using public transport, carpools, bicycles or walking.
- Eat less meat, especially "red" meat from cows and sheep.
