The effects of climate change are clear warnings that we should take Earth Day seriously. There are many easy ways to incorporate activities that are helpful to the environment to your everyday life.

Minimize use of electricity

Firstly, lessen the use of electricity. Electricity is important to our daily house chores, but you can’t say the same thing with binge watching your favorite series on your smart TV for hours.

Conserving energy will help in reducing greenhouse gas emissions that harm our environment.

Some alternative forms of entertainment could be reading, drawing, or have a nice talk with your loved ones. There are many ways to entertain ourselves at home so it’s time to explore them.

Use reusable items

Recycling and using reusable items will help conserve our natural resources.

If you’re going out to buy your essentials today, opt for reusable bags instead of plastics used by the stores to carry your items. If you worry you might get thirsty while shopping, then use refillable water containers.

This will not only be helpful for our Mother Earth, but can also help you save some cash from buying the same things all over again.

Shop Wisely

Another way to take part in Earth Day is to purchase energy-efficient appliances. Purchasing such will also help in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, save water, save money, and reducing our carbon footprint.

These appliances should come with an Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) sticker attached to it.

More plants

The hype for indoor plants are not going to wane down anytime soon and they deserve to stay. Plants are not only making your space aesthetically pleasing, but also clean.

Certain house plants act as a natural filter to indoor pollution like aloe vera, snake plant, and peace lily.

Plant more if you have a backyard. Doing so will not only help your household to have a clean air, but your neighbors’ as well.

Educate

One way to make Earth Day relevant is by talking about it more. You can start talking about its importance to your family during dinner, to your video call with friends, or by sharing it on your social media accounts.
