2020 has taught us a lot, its time to consume more mindfully and cause a lesser negative impact on the planet.
Sustainable living is a lifestyle that attempts to reduce an individuals or the society’s use of Earth’s natural resources.
It can be really tough to reduce your environmental footprint, can be even harder when the people around you aren’t doing it. Truth be told, it’s not that hard especially if you break it down into smaller steps.
It can be easy as:
Turning off the lights when leaving a room.
Growing your own herbs/vegetables or even just having a few pots around the house.
Using organic fertilisers for your gardens.
Not using plastic bags while shopping.
Re-using your containers that you get with your groceries. (Up-cycling)
Use washable, reusable straws.
Use cloth towels instead of paper towels.
Invest in clothes that last longer. (Sustainable Clothing)
Support fashion brands that are ethical.
Opt. For digital bills/letters, this will save paper.
The small steps eventually lead to the bigger picture.
