As the world reaches a dangerous point and the climate crisis worsens, there are things that we can all do to reduce our carbon footprint and help to give the planet a chance to get through this crisis. Here are some ideas…
There are many things that we use that are bad for the environment that we don’t really give a second thought to. But nowadays there are actually plenty of much more environmentally friendly alternatives. Hygiene products for example such as sanitary towels and tampons, as well as nappies and even toothbrushes all have fantastic alternatives that are much better for the environment, such as this Bamboo Toothbrush from Bambooth.
The way that we eat has a huge impact on the environment and care must be taken to do as much as we can to limit the carbon footprint of our food. Reducing our meat intake, eating products that do not contain palm oil and buying food from local farmers and producers as much as possible are all great ways to make sure that the food we eat is not having a huge negative environmental impact.
Travel and transport are one of the main causes of global warming, and with many households now owning at least two cars you can see why. Think about using public transport more, or even taking up cycling to get to work – this is also a great way to get fit as well as helping the planet.
