1. Ditch the usage of plastics
Plastics play a greater and negative role in disturbing the balance of the environment in every single way and only a small percentage of the plastics are recyclable and the rest of it is settling in the water bodies or is consumed by animals. So, make it a point to recycle & reuse the plastic, use eco-friendly plastic bags made from plant-based materials like corn and wheat starch, or even use steel bottles. You can also make use of cotton bags, jute bags, or bags that are stitched from unused clothes instead of plastic bags.
2. Create natural compost with household waste
A great amount of whatever you use in your kitchen or everyday life serves as a great product that can be recycled and created an organic compost, for your garden itself. Right from eggshells, dried leaves, the water of the washed veggies, fruits or pulses, paper bags, leftover food, and other compostable items. Doing so will fetch the plants in your garden natural compost along with several nutrients.
3. Use water wisely
Indeed, water is one of the most precious resources available on the planet Earth in a very small percentage and hence needs to be used wisely. With simple steps like turning off the tap while brushing, fixing the leaky taps, adopting the rainwater harvesting method, use bucket water instead of the shower for bathing.
4. Bloom up your garden with Eco-Friendly Ganesha
Another outstanding step to conserve the environment is to celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi in an eco-friendly way. You can go for the plant-Ganesha idol which consists of 100% organic soil with seeds of different plants. So, welcome the concept of celebrating every festival in an eco-friendly way.
5. Avoid wasting electricity and try out solar products
The use of solar products is seen much higher in recent years than other appliances that do not consume electricity. Instead of the traditional light bulbs or tube lights, you can go for LED lights. Moreover, let in the natural sunlight and the fresh, cool breeze naturally ventilate your living space or office, for the maximum day time.
6. Go for car/bike pooling
One of the outstanding ways to save fuel is to adopt a car or bike pooling system. This activity will not just cut down your fuel expenses, reduce noise, sound, air pollution, and traffic on the road.
7. Adopt paperless activities
With the increasing cutting of trees for manufacturing paper, it is quite necessary for each one of us to go Paperless in today's world.
