3 Ways to Make Your Life More Sustainable,

Are you ready to embark on a journey towards a greener, more sustainable lifestyle? If you've been seeking ways to reduce your environmental impact and save some money along the way, you've come to the right place.

1. Renewable energy: be the coolest house on the block (literally)

Are you tired of your electric bill making you want to add fist shaped windows to your home? Fear not, renewable energy is here to save the day (and your wallet).

- Use LED bulbs instead of standard light bulbs to light up your house. Firstly, LED bulbs use much less energy compared to normal household bulbs, thus they are more efficient and result in less energy wastage. Also, LED's are made with epoxy lenses rather than glass which means that they are sturdier and are much more resistant to breakage. Not only do they save you tons of money, they also help save the planet.

- Use solar panels! That's right, the sun is willing to give you some of its light in exchange for the benefit of the planet AND your bank account. What a generous star! While they may be costly to set up, in the long run, they will significantly lower your greenhouse gas emissions. After solar panels have been installed, costs to keep the system running are substantially lower than other forms of power generation as they don't need fuel, charge or lots of maintenance continue running. This will eventually make up for the cost of setting them up and then save even more money.

2. The 3 R's: Become an eco-pirate

-Recycling reduces waste being sent to landfills and incineration sites which in turn reduces the amount of plastic that is dumped into the ocean or atmosphere. Furthermore, recycling conserves natural resources. With raw material supplies dwindling faster than your savings after black friday, it's necessary to conserve materials like plastic and recycle them so that they can be used again in other forms.

- Reusing old clothes and bottles for other purposes can have a big contribution to decreasing the amount of waste that is burned and released into the atmosphere. stead of throwing things away after a single use, find innovative ways to give them a second life. Repurpose glass jars as storage containers, transform old T-shirts into tote bags, or use newspapers for arts and crafts projects. Your friends will be amazed at your ability to find imaginative uses for everyday items.

- Minimizing waste and consumption is the main goal of reduction. You can dramatically lessen your environmental impact by choosing wisely and paying attention to what you buy. Buy only what you actually need, choose products with little packaging, and go for long-lasting, sturdy items rather than disposable ones

3. Sustainable transport: Going green on wheels.

- Leave the traffic jams in the dust and scoot around with a fancy bicycle or scooter. It may be slower but it's more fun, and more importantly, you wont have to wait hours questioning your life in a traffic jam. Sounds great doesn't it? Cycling is both sustainable and is a great way to experience your surroundings. Instead of taking a car to work, which releases lots of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and contributes to climate change, try riding a bike and feel the wind in your hair while saving the environment too.

- Use Public transport! Taking a bus or carpooling is much more eco friendly than taking a car by yourself. New people don't bite, and it may be fun striking up a conversation with them. Isn't this more fun than sitting in silence in your own car every day? Every vehicle on the road releases an average of one pound of CO2 per mile driven. Compared with driving alone, taking public transportation reduces CO2 emissions by 45%, decreasing pollutants in the atmosphere and improving air quality. As you can see, this clearly has a large impact on the environment.
