Save The Environment Today

               
          
             Global warming is no longer a theoretical concept. While raising average global temperatures, climate change could also bring more snow, harder rain, or heat waves, meteorologists say. Computer models based on climate data from nine countries indicate every place on the planet will be hit with extreme weather events, including coastal storms and floods.
             There is emerging scientific consensus that human activity in particular through the emission of carbon dioxide has certainly contributed to drastic changes in our climate through global warming, so save our planet today.

            While waiting for political will and sanity to save our planet, prevail at the global level, each of us could do our part to reduce our carbon footprint. A Carbon Footprint is a measure of the impact human activities have on the environment in terms of the amount of green house gases produced, measured in units of carbon dioxide. Calculate your carbon footprint here and you might save our planet.

          
           Here are 10 simple things you can do immediately that will start to reduce your contribution to global warming and save our planet. These things would cost you no money at all and will in fact save you money.


     
1. Turn off your appliances when not in use. We are all guilty of leaving our appliances on even when we are not using them. Chief among them are computers, printers, CD players and others. We also tend to leave too much lights on even when we don't need them. Save Our Planet Today!

2. Turn down the central heating slightly (try just 1 to 2 degrees C). Overheating our houses is not only wasteful but also invites pests and insects. Warm and moist areas could also grow fungus and cause rot. Save Our Planet Today!

3. Turn down the water heating setting. Just 2 degrees will make a significant saving. Lower heating would not only save cost but also save your skin as overly hot water is damaging to the skin. Save Our Planet Today!

4. Check the central heating timer setting to shut down your heating or lower after you have left for work. Save Our Planet Today!


5. Fill your dish washer and washing machine with a full load - this will save you water, electricity, and washing powder. If we have little utensils to be washed it would be a great idea to wash them by hand and drip dry them. Save Our Planet Today!

6. Fill the kettle with only as much water as you need. Save Our Planet Today!

7. Unplug your mobile phone as soon as it has finished charging. Save Our Planet Today!

8. Defrost your fridge/freezer regularly. Save Our Planet Today!


9. Do your weekly shopping in a single trip. By using our vehicles often we not only contribute to carbon emission but also create an unhealthy life style. Save Our Planet Today!

10. Hang out the washing to dry rather than tumble drying it. Save Our Planet Today!
