Activities at Home that can be changed to become more sustainable

1. We can carry our own bag while going for shopping.

2. Use bucket and mug instead of shower for bathing.
3. Use LED lighting or CFL bulbs instead of incandescent lighting as it’s proven to last longer, which reduces the
need to keep purchasing light bulbs.
4. Open up your blinds and use as much natural light as possible before switching on your light bulbs.
5. Turn off your lights when you leave a room.
6. We can go paperless that is we can ask suppliers to email the receipt instead of printing one out.
7. While opening milk packets we should not cut small piece of plastic from top instead we can make a small
cut because small piece of plastic takes longer time to biodegrade.
8. Switch to metal or bamboo straws instead of plastic straws.
9. We can use the shell of coconut as cleaning brush for clothes instead of regular plastic brush.
10. We can collect the waste RO water and then use it to water the plants or washing utensils.
11. We can invest in bamboo toothbrush.
