What Ways Can You Help The Environment?

Let's face it, most of us are wanting to help the planet in some way, shape, or form-to make our little contribution. If you have been wanting to be Eco-friendly but don't know how or maybe you think that it's too expensive, think again!


  • One good way to help the planet is recycle. If your area offers recycling pick up that is ideal. That is how I do it, but if not, there is usually a place where you can drop off your recyclables. 
  • Re-using plastic grocery bags for trash bags in the bathroom or anywhere in your house is one good way to practice being green. Then again if you would rather, usually grocery stores offer a bin to put the bags in so they can send them off to be recycled.
  • Buying re-usable grocery bags is the way to go! Sometimes you can find them for free! But ultimately they are no more than .99 so maybe pick one up here and there and then eventually you won't need the plastic grocery bags anymore!
  • Using non-aerosol sprays. Aerosol sprays have been said to deplete the ozone layer.
  • Recycling egg cartons! A lot of grocery stores have a bin for you to bring in your egg cartons!
  • For those who cloth diaper, I applaud you. It is saving our planet and every little way that you can help save the planet is key! 
These are just a few ways to help save the planet and be eco-friendly. I will go over more ways in depth in other posts.

Let's do our part and help out any way that we can!
