Even today many people seem to think that “going green” is a difficult, monumental task. It’s such a shame that this idea persists when everyone can go green, easily, in different ways and to different degrees.
We’ve posted in the past about ways to greenify your apartment, but now, we’re giving you four more super easy ways to make your life a little greener - these are so easy, you probably forgot they were options!
● Recycle. Find out what your apartment building’s recycling program is and make sure that you have a container. Donate gently used items rather than throwing them away. Check with the village or town hall and find out how to dispose of items such as batteries, paint and cell phones in your area.
● Ride a bicycle. Saving gas, reducing emissions and getting a little exercise are all positives. If biking isn’t practical or it is too cold out, see if you can start a carpool to work, take the bus or ride the train.
● Reduce junk mail by using the Direct Marketing Association’s consumer section on the Internet to take yourself off of mailing lists.
● Bring a canvas or cloth bag to the grocery store instead of using their bags.
