Instructions

1.Water Pollution
WATER

Use it sparingly. Don't let water run down the drain. You can fill the sink with some water to wash your fruit and vegetables and then use the same water to wash dishes. Adjust your sprinklers so they will only water grass and not the sidewalk. Use water efficient shower heads, dishwater, facets, and sprinklers. Drop your tissue in the trash instead of down the toilet. There are many ways to save and conserve water daily, it just takes a little bit of effort.



2.Clean Air For All
AIR

Clean air is vital to our health, so do your part in keeping the air clean. Most pollutants come from manufacturing, but there are some things you can do to help in your everyday activities. Choose pump sprays, not aerosol sprays, choose latex paints over oil-based paints, don't overfill your gas tank, and drive smart. Planting a tree is a great way to give back to the environment too!



3.Keep It Clean
WASTE

One of the easiest things you can do is eliminate extra waste from your life. When you go grocery shopping do you reach for the food with major packaging? Do you buy something and toss out all the wrappings? Try purchasing second hand goods, or shopping at a farmers market for food. Bring your own reusable bag to the shop. Reuse and share products. Go Green!



4:RECYCLE

We've all heard it. But can we all do it? YES! If you just put your mind to it. Many communities already have containers to separate and recycle paper, plastics, and glass. You can also recycle and reuse by sharing, or donating your clothes, old cars, electronics, magazines, etc.





5: BE THOUGHTFUL

All it takes it a second to think about if what you are doing to the environment is harmful. Be mindful of your actions and make choices that are environmentally friendly. Not only will you help protect the environment, you will feel great knowing you did your part for mother earth!
