You may be thinking: "How could little old me make a change in the great big world?" (maybe not those exact words, but anyways) Well, here's how. You may not know this, but tiny changes make a lot of a difference:
1. Use Reusable Grocery Bags and Water Bottles.
1. Use Reusable Grocery Bags and Water Bottles.
Imagine never throwing away a single plastic bottle or bag in your entire life and then seeing all those bags and bottles piled up. Now, picture that across landfills globally, multiplied by 8 billion. It’s a huge amount of waste. However, picture 8 billion reusable bottles and bags instead. While some might need two or three bags, most people currently use just one. If future generations maintain this, the oceans can heal, and both animals and people will have a shorter mortality rate due to this. Even if this change is adopted by just a few thousand people, it can still greatly impact our environment.

BONUS:
Some stores sell canned water, which may be more expensive, but it is infinitely renewable and doesn't have as many microplastics.
2. Limit Water Usage
2. Limit Water Usage
If everyone on the planet left the sink on while brushing their teeth, and all that water was collected into a massive bowl, it would be a surprisingly large amount of water. Now, picture we waste even less water than just turning off the tap while brushing. This could involve using a cup to rinse instead, or keeping the water flow to a minimum. Small changes in our routine can significantly reduce water waste. By being careful with how we use water, we can all chip in to conserve and make a positive impact on our environment.
