Hello everyone,
I hope that you are all having
a good day.
In my last post we looked at
climate change and how it is important for everyone to know about it but
knowing about it is only half the battle and this next step is going to be the
hardest one yet. In this post I am going to discuss with you how we can combat
climate change and how we can all help as individuals to save the world!
1. Reducing our carbon footprints.
We all know that carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere is the main gas causing the greenhouse effect and so
by reducing our carbon footprints we can slow the rate of climate change and
maybe get to a point where we can start to reverse the effects of manmade
climate change. In order to reduce out carbon footprints we need to stop using
fossil fuels and stop using electricity that comes from fossil fuels. Some
ideas:
a) When using a mobile phone use
it till it runs out and once completely drained then charge it. After if it’s charged
remove the power source. The same goes for laptops and other chargeable
equipment as well.
b) Put on some gloves and
manually wash dishes instead of using the dishwasher ;)
c) All lightbulbs can be changed
to more energy efficient light bulbs (The energy rating can usually be found on
the side of the box)
d) We can also make an effort to
switch off lights as we leave a room.
More to come each day :) Be a force for change!
Thanks for reading,
Heyze
