Hello World! Welcome Friends! Global warming is a real issue. And as time goes by, the issue becomes more persistent. If we all come together with a common solution of living more sustainably and reducing our expenses, we can help our mother Earth greatly. Changing daily products and tasks for more eco-friendly alternatives can reduce the effect on the environment. Here are some ways you can live by to protect our planet as much as you can.

Cut on Internet Expenses
You can save a lot of money and cut on internet expenses if you find the right provider. You can compare broadband plans to find the best one that suits your needs. Besides reducing your internet remissions, you will reduce your carbon footprint and live a happier life. The happiest people do not need the Internet to make them happy or fulfilled. We’ve put upon ourselves this type of lifestyle of having the Internet as the fundamental of our daily functioning.
Grow Your Products
Growing your products can be challenging, especially if you have no prior experience or knowledge on how to do it. Most of the products in the supermarkets are imported. This increases fossil fuels usage. So, growing your fruits and vegetables will decrease the effect on
the environment and save you money at the same time. And some of the products create air and water pollution in the areas they are grown.
Save Water
Cutting down on water usage will help you reduce your bill expenses and how you affect the planet. One of the best ways to save water is to reuse the cooking or cleaning water later for other purposes. If you have a broken tap that gets on your nerves with every drop of water, make sure you fix it on time because even one drop spent uselessly has a big effect on nature.

Eat Less Meat As Possible
We do not tell you that you go vegan or vegetarian. We are advising you to reduce your meat intake because this industry has a huge effect on the landscapes since large farms and housing methods need to be provided where these animals can be bred and grown.
Use the Digital Products More
The digital era we live in has a lot of benefits. Reducing the paper can be one of them. Since a lot of tasks, responsibilities, and chores can be used using digital products, you can cut on paper usage. The production of paper has a great effect on climate change, from the equipment used to make the paper, to the tools used to remove the trees. Some of the ways to reduce paper usage are to send emails instead of letters, write your notes in an app instead of sticky notes, read books online instead of buying a hard copy, etc.
Put Your Wi-Fi on a Timer
One of the best things you can do in regards to living more sustainably is to put a timer on your Wi-Fi. While this might not seem as much, it can stop you from using any of the web services right when you wake up first thing in the morning. You can start the day clearer, more creative, and become more relaxed. And you won’t be worried about any internet outages that will potentially disrupt your peace.
On top of that, you can save on electricity. Per one statistic, a woman was measuring the amount of electricity saved for a year. And it turned out to be 73 kWh which is the amount needed to fully charge a Tesla model and drive it for 334 miles. Well, that’s quite a lot!
Do Not Stream TV
Watching streaming videos and Netflix shows might be one of your top hobbies. However, streaming videos is one of the greatest ways of spending energy and data. If you watch a single episode of a particular series, you will need up to 1GB of download data, which will result in 1.4 kilograms of carbon dioxide emissions. We are not aware of all of the ways we harm the environment, so we need to learn about these things. These types of services encourage you to binge-watching, and even though some shows are very addictive and fun, it’s not healthy for you.
Sell or Donate Unwanted Items
We all have in our homes items we no longer use. But we keep them for the sake of the memories or if we need them in the future. And that moment in the future when we need them never comes. It’s time to get rid of any unwanted items. You can either donate or sell them. If you donate them, you’ll provide a new purpose and save someone the trouble of buying them and spending money. Or you can sell your old pictures in antique stores and earn more.
