5 great ways to help our enviroment!

As many people know, Global worming is damaging our Earth and environment. So I think it would be really great if people could take in these idea's and use them in daily life!


1) Change your kitchen habits- You should always use reusable containers for food storage, or in lunch bags, instead of plastic rap or tin foil! You can also use up old rags to clean your mess instead of paper towels.

2) Shopping bags- We all know that plastic bags are not biodegradable, well they at least don't decompose probaly. So we should all be using the Eco friendly bags for when we go shopping! If every one switches and starts using these bags, it will help our environmental issues by a lot.

3) Stop junk mail- The junk mail that Americans receive in just one day is an incredible amount! It could produce enough energy to heat up a quarter of a million homes! Which is terrible! There are some people who you can write to, that can make junk mail reduce by 75%.

4)Clothes- You can all ways make new clothes by the ones you already have. If you are about to throw them out, you should stop and think about what else is a possibility. Maybe you could hand them down, maybe to a younger sibling o friend!

5) Tires- Every two weeks, Americans wear out nearly 50 millin pounds of rubber off there tires. To stop this you can inflate your tires more.
