Are you segregating your waste? Using a bamboo toothbrush and carrying your tote for grocery shopping? Well, there is more to be done! Here are 3 easy yet impact ways for you to make a difference:
- Shun Plastic
So what if the government lift the ban on single-use plastics? You can be responsible on your own to shun the plastic bags and other items that are creating menace in the name of cheap convenience. Plastic can be Omni-present. And it is easier said than done to ditch plastic because it has cemented its place in almost everyone`s life. But, nothing is impossible and therefore boycotting plastic and products that come in plastic packaging can surely help in reducing plastic waste.
Always, go for eatables that come in biodegradable food packaging and prefer takeaways with eco-friendly disposable cutlery. This simple act will not only reduce the use of single-use plastic but will also make the environment cleaner.
2. Reduce before recycling
We all know recycling can help us reduce the amount of plastic waste that is been generated on a daily basis. But, in your bit to save our environment, REFUSE precedes everything else. If you can develop a habit of refusing things that are no necessary, you eliminate the need to rethink, repair, recycle or repurpose it. With our ever-increasing hunger to buy new products and things every other day, recycling today is a crumbling industry with very bleak chances of success rate.
To put in simpler words, but if you must, but boycott blind consumerism!
3. Become a Green Host
We all love to socialize! And when we do host a large gathering, we often end up serving food in plastic cutlery. While it is a smart way to get rid of post-party dishes clean up, it is not at all healthy for the environment. From destroyed aquatic life to beautiful hill stations littered with plastic cutlery, there are many evidences of how we have managed to push our green planet on the verge of destruction. Thus, do socialize but, responsibly!
Replace, plastic dishes with sugarcane bagasse plates and biodegradable disposable tableware that will help you with keeping the environment clean due to their compostable nature. The eco-friendly disposable cutlery is made from bagasse and other agricultural residue that make them an awesome green alternative for chemically treated plastic cutlery.
Small drops can make an ocean! Similarly, small steps taken in the right direction can make this world a better place. So what are you waiting for? Visit www.ecoware.in, now!
