How to Be Eco-friendly
If you'd love to be more eco-friendly but don't know where to begin, start with a few small changes.
Lowering Your Energy.
Turn off lights and unplug power strips (电源插板) that you're not using. Since some devices can still use energy even when they're turned off, turn off these power strips at night to completely cut off energy use. If you need to leave your computer, or TV on, try setting it to sleep mode instead of simply leaving it on.
Using public transportation.
Keeping cars off the road in rush hours can also improve the air quality. If you do need to drive somewhere, ask friends if they'd like to carpool (拼车) , so fewer cars are on the road.
Say no to unnecessary plastic straws, lids, and bags and stop using plastic wrap and plastic containers for food storage. Instead, you can use reusable water bottles made of sustainable material like glass, bamboo, and ceramic.
Considering growing a plant.
They add more oxygen to the air, which means a less polluted air. If you don't have a green thumb, choose some plants that are rather easy to look after. If possible, grow more than one plant.
A. Reduce your gas consumption and carbon emissions by walking, biking, or taking the bus.
B. Here are some suggestions for you to live an eco-friendly life.
C. Use less energy during the hot summer months and cold winter season.
D. This is an easy way to reduce energy use.
E. Using items more than once.
F. Cutting Back on Plastics and Waste.
G. “Lucky Bamboo” is especially good for that, since it demands nearly no attention.
