What To Do, REALLY !?

We all do have an idea about today’s burning environmental issues, now is the time of action! Here’s how you can do your bit easily yet efficiently. The bottom line is, don’t blow it – good planets are hard to find!

1. Reduce, recycle, reuse

The most prominent tagline of today’s global environment movement, this triad points towards the basic idea of conservation. Reduce, refers to a cut in the excess use of materials, say plastic or glass, then recycling the used object, and finally reusing the product optimally again. This brings down the level of landfill and levels of energy required for newer products. Come; join the ‘R’ process!

2. Stop energy exploitation

When reference to “vampire power” is made, it doesn’t mean the hypnotic power of some black-caped, white-fanged devil but rather the STAND-BY mode of your home appliances that sucks out a lot of electricity from your power grid. So much so, that it amounts to a heavy 200-400 terawatts per year.

3. Save that bite and hold that drop

Food and water conservation is a burning issue today. And it is simple! Head start by not leaving eatables all the time, corresponding hunger and amount of food. For the water part, shorten your shower time; turn off the tap while brushing your teeth and fix faulty faucets for a greener globe!

4. Participate in Global Cooling

Indulge in eco-friendly methods like car pools and use of public transport. Also try turning that endless sun into solar power instead of complaining! This will reduce the level of green house gases, and hence cool the earth.

5. Go green, go social

If you are addicted to social networking online, it’s probably time you took that leap from the web to the ground! A concept like ‘Forest Facebook’ can be idealized wherein one can meet and work with friends on the improving our environment. This way, leisure can be mixed with fruitful activism!
