5 Eco Changes You can Make This Weekend


Making eco changes can be hard for many people, but here are several small eco changes you can make this weekend to make a difference in your life. Do what you can when you can. If you try to do everything all at once you will become extremely overwhelmed.

  • Replace plastic items with glass. Start with water bottles or food storage containers these are usually things that you use often so you will likely notice a difference.
  • Switch to eco cleaning supplies. You don't have to overhaul your cleaning supplies all at once, but maybe switch to an eco all-purpose cleaner then to a glass cleaner and so on and so forth.
  • Buy only what you need. Don't buy just to buy. It can be hard when you are influenced by a lot of different accounts and sites, but try to only buy what you need.
  • Unsubscribe from mail. Save a up a pile of junk mail and start calling various companies or going online to unsubscribe from their mailing list. This will greatly reduce the amount of waste.
  • Try to limit disposable items. Don't have disposable items be your go to, try to only use disposable items when you need to.

5 Eco Changes you can Make this weekend



Since it is Earth Month I thought I would do another installment of 5 eco changes you make this weekend. You can view pasts posts here and here.

Don't run the water when you are not using it. I know you have heard this before, but if you are brushing your teeth or doing stuff in the kitchen, don't let the water just run. Turn it off and then back on when you need it.

Switch to green cleaning supplies. Instead of using so many chemical cleaners try switching your cleaning products to ones that don't use as many harsh chemicals.

Volunteer for an environmentally friendly organization. Give back to a worthy cause you love.

Adjust your thermostat setting. This helps save on energy.

Buy locally grown produce. You are supporting local farmers and reducing "your" footprint by buying produce that does not need to be transported as much.
