1. Use reusable grocery bags. You can purchase some really cute bags online (just google “reusable bags” and you’ll find some REALLY cool sites) and some grocery stores are selling their own bags. I also know some stores give you a discount for using their brand of reusable bags of 5 cents or so off of your bill. Hey-every little bit helps! Soon you’d have those bags paid for. We use millions and millions of plastic bags every year, and they are NOT biodegradable, they photodegrade, which means that instead of breaking up into nothing harmful, they just break into smaller and smaller chemical pieces that can harm us. So give up those plastic bags! Soon you’ll realize how many you were using and be disgusted.
2. Um, recycle? This seems so simple, but it can be a difficult habit to get into. We recycle in my apartment, but we had to cart it all out to a center which was difficult. Now, our apt. complex has recycling bins. Talk to you landlord and see if they would switch to a company that offers recycling. Recycling is the simplest thing we can do to keep the planet clean and not overuse our resources!
Those are my tips for today 
Don’t worry, I’ll have lots more. This is my new pet project and I hope all of you will adopt it as your own. A cleaner world for us = a cleaner world for our pets and children to grow up in!
