Do You Want to Help the Environment?

in #blog7 years ago

There are many ways to positively contribute, but why not address those with the biggest impact, which are usually the easiest?

Choose your own order and your own pace. What you are comfortable with in each moment, self-love is as important! This is not about giving up anything, it needs to feel natural and happy. Worry doesn't help, nor does sacrificing yourself. The goal is to cause as little suffering as possible, without hurting yourself in the process.

The comfort level is different for each one of us, in different time of our life.

Stop eating or eat less:

  • animal products (especially cows, fish, chicken, pigs and other mass-produced, including dairy products and eggs)
  • processed food (buy more whole natural food instead, without packaging)

Stop using or use less:

  • chemicals (especially in food and cosmetics, but also cleaning products)
  • plastic (use natural alternatives like paper, textile and compostable materials)

Make your own meals

Grow your own fruits and vegetables

Use public transport or bike

Take nature walks and connect to nature

These are just some examples. There's more. Be creative. Choose your own way that you're happy with at the moment. But this is the future, if we truly want to survive and thrive here on Earth. Compassion and awareness. 💗

What are the ways that you like to contribute to the environment?

I chose the place I live because I can live without a car, or even a bike lol I can walk to the grocery store, the post office, the art supply store and a bus terminal that will get me almost anywhere else I need to go, all within about 3-8 minutes!

That's great! Location does wonders :D It can save resources. For me it's important to be both close to nature and have access to stores with good quality groceries, to find that good balance... :)

Sensible workable ideas.

Thank you. I'm happy you agree 😊💛💚💙
