 5 Earthly Ideas/Tips:  |
1) Plastic bags and Shopping Bags: Many supermarkets and also stores such as Ikea offer
an area to recycle plastic shopping bags.
2) Batteries: Ikea also offers bins where you can recycle batteries.
3) Biodegradable/ Degradable: Use Biodegradable or degradable products! Biodegradable
products break down through the action of a naturally occurring microorganism, such as bacteria,
fungi etc. over a period of time. Degradable plastics are oil based and break down
through chemical reactions rather than the activity of micro-organisms, so they can degrade
in an anaerobic environment into water, CO2, biomass and trace elements. (6)
3) Try Organic and sustainable! It just tastes, feels and is better for you and your buddies on
Mother Earth!
5) Recycle/ Reuse: Recycling can help cut down on depleting resources and contributing to
landfills. I can also be helpful to swap useful items or give away items in such a manner that
others can re-use them instead of just throwing them in the trash which may end up in a landfill.
