Shrink That Eco Footprint

These days we all need to think about being a little more green for one important reason. We are, slowly but surely, killing the planet. Toxic fumes are destroying the ozone layer, green areas that soak up CO2 are being destroyed and landfills are overflowing. Here are a few tips to take on board if you want to shrink that eco footprint.

Go Renewable

It is possible for private individuals to invest in renewable energy sources. For instance, you should think about looking into solar panels. Solar panels can be bought for the home and installed on the roof. With new solar panels, in the summer you can cut your electric bill down to zero.

Walk A Little More

One of the biggest uses of energy that damages the environment is fuel. In cities like London, the situation has become so dire that the air is quickly becoming dangerous to breathe. This has already occurred in cities in China and the effect can even be seen in LA. As such, it is crucial that people try and stop driving as much as they can. Get public transport, cycle or even try and take a brisk walk to work in the morning.

Recycle As Much As You Can

You can recycle more than you probably think. For instance, what do you do when your tech becomes outdated? We bet that you either keep it in drawers or you dump it in the waste. Both are incorrect options. Instead, you should think about recycling it all. You can find out how to do this in the infographic that follows.
