and be green. Ready? Up!
TURN THE LIGHT OFF
It seems like a
no-brainer, but people often forget to switch off the light when they walk out
of a room. Turning off the lights when they are not in use can help save energy
and cut down your electricity bill. The type of bulb also matters. Incandescent
lights and halogens are the less efficient one and releases more heat than
others. CFL or Compact Fluorescent lamps on the other hand is the improved
version of its predecessors. However, the frequency of it being switch on and
off lessens its life span that is why the new LED lightning technology becomes
the top choice among consumers. Apart from its cost-effectiveness, LED’s when
turn on instantly set to full brightness and are largely unaffected by
vibrations. Great deals isn’t it? Also it would be greater if you do keep in
mind this general rule from our energy department. If you’ll be out of the room
for 15 minutes or less , leave the lights on but if you’d go more than that,
turning if off would definitely count.
DON’T BE TRASHY, RECYCLE.
The average person
generates 4.3 pounds of waste per day that equates out to around 220 million
tons of trash a year. Among this are plastic bags we often get from buying
groceries, snacks or even used as an alternative lunch box. So next time you
throw out that old cell phone or florescent light bulb, ask yourself: Is this
recyclable? Or when visiting your fave shopping store, it would be best to bring along a reusable or
personalized bag as a greener substitute.

watch the short video animation entitled Save the World. It talks about general details about how can you take part in
making a difference for our Earth and for ourselves.

WE SAY NO TO ARTIFICIAL LAND, WATER AND AIR!
Have showers rather
than baths. Turn the faucet when not in use. Recycle used water from your
weekend’s laundry or might as well avoid wasting that single glass of
refreshments and try watering it instead on a tree pot nearby. Remember every
drop counts. We may be able to buy clean
drinking waters at a reasonable price today but if wastage continues be
prepared to allocate half of your monthly budget for just an access to clean
water.
Here’s a short video
to show you how to start saving.

LESSER MEAT FOR A BODY THAT IS FIT
New reason why we should lessen our meat
consumption. Aside from the health benefits, trying out a “Meatless Mondays” at
home would help cut down the need for livestock, thus reducing the amount of nitrous
oxide produced by their waste and the greenhouse gasses that go along
with it. This makes a huge impact on our planet because nitrous oxide is even
worse than carbon dioxide. Whether Meatless Mondays, Tuesdays, Saturdays or any
day that you like, that effort could go a long way already for your health and
pro-environment goals this 2017.

These are just few of the simple ways that any of us can do as
stewards of these precious Earth beauties. Like the campaign posters, videos,
song compositions and many other art works out there, let us all give our share
whether small or big, or in any form it may be, believe me friends, it all
matters to Mother Earth.
