In Your Home
- Turn off equipment like televisions, computers and stereos when you're not using them. That little red standby light means they're still using power - and that means a contribution to global warming. (i'm not really following this, due to drama addiction.)
- Save water: turn off the tap when brushing your teeth. (i use cup to rinse my mouth :D)
- Recycle your paper, glass, plastics and other waste. (i definitely do)
- Send e-greetings instead of paper cards. Check out the range of free WWF e-cards available.
- Help reduce the world's rubbish dumps - don't use "throw-away" products like paper plates and napkins, and plastic knives, forks, and cups. Avoid using Styrofoam cups, plates and boxes – take away your food by bringing your own plastic container to food stalls and restaurants. (trying to remind myself about this)
Out & About
- Take your own bags to the shops to carry home your groceries and shopping. (handbag that is big enough to put my stuff)
- Look for products with less packaging. (hmmm...)
- Buy the most energy-efficient household appliances you can afford. (not really something that i can control)
- Use recycled paper. (i am definitely doing this)
- Choose wisely and help stop illegal wildlife trade!
*Do not buy products made from endangered species, such as
"tortoiseshell jewellery" (Hawksbill turtle shell) or ivory.
*Do not eat dishes that include parts of endangered species, such
as sharks fin soup or turtle eggs. (you should see my face when the sharks' fin soup was right in front of me the last time i went for a wedding dinner.)
*Do not buy medicines which claim to contain parts of endangered species, such as pangolin scales, tiger bone or bear bile.
In the Garden (i don't do gardening)
- Collect rainwater to water your flowers.
- Plant local species of trees.
- Never take plants or pick flowers from anywhere in the wild.
Anyway, great tips to follow.
