Use microfiber towels instead of paper towels
Paper towels maybe considered to be the most commonly utilized when it comes to household cleaning tasks, but a reusable microfiber will also get the job done well and even better especially when up against dirt and grease. Microfiber towels are sturdy and cheaper and can be used up to ten times.
Cook at home
If you prepare your meal you will be able to avoid eating tasty snacks that are packed with great amount of sodium and fats. Food delivery maybe free but at the end of the day your orders proves to be costly and definitely will add garbage to your trash cans. Since along with your orders you will also have those disposable cutlery and Styrofoam packaging.
Cooking at home is far more ideal since it is healthy, gives you opportunityto have an exercise and at the same time friendly to environment. If you intend to have takeouts during weeknights or weekdays, try making freezable meals on the weekends that you can heat up quickly after a hard day work.
More Plants at Home
Add a touch of nature to your home by having some plants in your backyard and bonsais or flowerpots in your home. These endeavor will not only make your home nice to look at, it also gives you fresh carbon dioxide to inhale. For the record, an average person breathes 10 to 20 thousand liters of air a day, so it is important to have a clean air. Ionic purifier is one of the most popular air cleaners, but it emits ozone, which is a potential air pollutants. A plant in a 100 square can cleanse the air. Plants and bushes such as bamboo, Chinese evergreen, marginata, peace lily, juniper, flowering plants, and other ornamental plants are capable of cleansing the air.
Air dry your clothes
Let the blazing heat of the sun do the drying of your laundry. Line drying your washed cloths will translate to saving money, thus it is indeed a great idea to shun away from your washing machine dryers.
Wash and reuse plastic bags
You can extend the life of your plastic bags up to ten times by washing them thoroughly. This might pose a little challenge on your part but will certainly make our planet beams with a smile. Plastic materials will take a lot of years to decompose and when it reaches the sea it threatens sea turtles as it may mistaken them as an appetizing treat, that is, the jellyfishes. Moreover, plastic tends to clog sewers that lead to floods in urban cities in most developing countries.
