You Can Start Now: Little things that make BIG changes



 - turn off the lights when you're not in the room, or use them less
 - shower instead of taking a bath, shower for less time, and shower together!
 - unplug appliances when you're not using them
 - ride a bike!
 - use public transportation
 - walk somewhere!
 - change your lightbulbs for fluorescent ones
 - if you want to keep your car, use it less or use it responsibly
 - trade in your car for a smart car, or an electric
 - eat less meat (this seems pretty drastic to me, but some people swear it'll work)
 - recycle things! be it plastic, glass, cardboard or paper
 - plant a tree; you can plant one yourself, with your friends or donate money for someone to plant it for you
 - buy organic products, or ones from a farmer's market
 - stop using (or use less) aerosols and sprays
 - try to throw away less things, reuse them or set up a garage sale!
 - go camping instead of staying in a hotel
 - go do something outside!
 - start your own garden
 - finally, share this list with others and educate them about climate change

  5. It's very easy to say that, but it's more difficult to do. I think the goverment would have to be persistent to the population to follow this measures. If million of people follow their, we will get positive results.
