Every day every one of our homes uses so much of plastic and other non-degradable goods without us even realizing it and therefore, we must always pay close attention to our usage and make an effort to not only reduce the amount of plastic we use but also to recycle the plastic and appear that we do use. Our world can no longer sustain itself based on the amount of resources we use and the very sad part is that we use them and throw them away only to buy new plastic and new plastic and new wood.
All of the wood, plastic and paper we use can use recycled and used all over again which means we will not have to use any new resourced of the earth however, most people do not pay attention to this and continue to use of the earth like there is no tomorrow and like, we have no end to the earth’s resources. Another big problem is that the garbage that we use is going in to the sea and cause the deaths of numerous sea life because they are swallowing the plastic.
Beach clean ups
At the average beach cleanup, the things that they find the most are the straws and the paper cups that people use. We could easily use a glass cup and wash it but instead, we simply continue to use one use material. One of the best things we can do is to have skip bins on the beach that people can use to put their trash where is can then be collected and recycled to be used again.
Make a plan for your home
It is important that you make a plan for your home as well to use as little things as possible because the more you use and throw away, the more your costs go up while you are wasting the earth’s resources. Have skip bins in your house as well and teach your children to use them correctly. You can even go so far as to invite your neighbors also to put their plastics in to your garbage bins where you can then have you recycling company come and separate and recycle them. You can also find ways of up cycling certain things like old bottles and old boxes in to newer products which will let you buy less on the long run. You can make pencil holders and lampshades among other things out of old soda bottles and old boxes for your kids.
