Reducing one's ecofootprint

As you can see, decreasing your environmental impact is not easy, but it can be fun! Many of the suggestions from the NIW guide are not that hard to follow and can be completed with little effort throughout the day. Reducing one's ecofootprint is essential if we want to move towards living sustainable lives. Here are some of the easiest ways to decrease one's ecofootprint:

1.Turn off the lights when you leave the room. They don't need to be on anyway!

2.Use reusable water bottles. Please learn from my mistake and don't buy a new plastic bottle

everyday. There's absolutely no point to it.

3.Try to only wash your clothes in full loads. Smaller loads use the same amount of water as larger loads, so try to fit everything into one load.

4. Unplug things that you use only once a day, such as coffee makers and toasters. While

plugged in they suck electricity even when not in use.

5. Walk, bike, run. Anything that involves exercise and doesn't involve transportation that

would increase pollution.

By following these easy steps, you can decrease your ecofootprint and feel happier, healthier, and better about the environment at the same time!
