11 Simple & Easy Ways To Contribute to a Better Environment


 
Environment,Science & Technology,Health
We all want to make our contribution to preserving the environment. Here are 11 tips to make our planet more green and sustainable.

1. Get rid of old toilets and get a new one that is more efficient. These use a great deal less water, and actually have fewer problems than those old toilets.

2. Don’t wash your car with the hose in the driveway. Instead, take it to an automated car wash if possible. These use a lot less water than you would if you did it yourself. Even if you use the non-automated car wash, you are better off.

3. Keep your water pipes clean. Don’t dump grease and such down the drain. Remember that a lot of water that is used travels through the pipes all the way to the water treatment plant – to be recycled.

4. Turn off the water to your washing machine when it is not in use. This elps to prevent unnoticed leaks. Also, check the fittings once every three to six months and replace them before they spring a leak.

5. Use the lowest water settings possible on your washing machine and on your dishwasher. Something that is just worn once should be worn at least once more before it is washed. Furthermore, you save money – and water - by washing full loads of laundry, just like you save by washing full loads of dishes.

6.During droughts, your community officials will likely have water usage guidelines. Make sure that you follow these, and if possible, use even less water than is recommended. Remember that when such guidelines are issued, it is an indication that a drought has brought on a water shortage in your area. Water is more precious than most of us realize.

7.Set water usage guidelines in your own home, even when there isn’t a drought. Limit shower time for each family member to ten minutes. You will be amazed at the money that you save in terms of water bills and fuel or power bills (most people take hot or warm showers).

8.Shower more often than you take a bath. Although the water is running, you will actually use less. Furthermore, you can turn the water off when you are soaping up, shaving, or shampooing. Never allow water to just run without it actually being used.

9.Get a shower head that allows for low water flow, but make sure that you have great water pressure. You won’t notice any lack of water. If you don’t have great water pressure, call a plumber – or your water department – to find out why.

10.You don’t have to water your lawn at all…but even if you feel the need to, you don’t have to water it every single day, or more than once a day. It will be just fine, and if it turns a little brown, that’s okay too….it will come alive again when it rains.

11.When you turn on the water, train yourself to see gold or silver, instead of water. If you start thinking of it in terms of "money going down the drain," you will find that you automatically use less water, and this will be reflected on your water bill.

There you go ... those eleven surefire green initiatives can have a significant impact on our planet so put them to work!
