1. Reduce the amount of water you use in daily activities, such as taking shorter showers, using less water when washing dishes, and using a broom instead of a hose for outdoor cleaning.
2. Replace your regular light bulbs with energy-efficient LED versions.
3. Eat less meat, especially beef, as its production causes more greenhouse gas emissions than other foods.
4. Walk, bike or use public transportation instead of driving your car.
5. Participate in or organize litter clean-up projects in your community.
6. Buy items that can be reused or recycled whenever possible.
7. Reuse shopping bags and avoid using disposable items like paper towels and plastic water bottles.
8. Compost food scraps and other organic materials.
9. Choose to buy food grown locally to reduce the carbon footprint of transporting food items over long distances.
10. Insulate your home to reduce energy costs and conserve energy.
