50 Ways to Help the Planet
My girlfriend, Kristen, sent me this link the other day and I loved it. It is a site called 50 Ways to Help the Planet that was made by Wire & Twine. They have compiled 50 tips that are all pretty easy to implement into your life immediately.
“Going green” doesn’t have to be a daunting task that means sweeping life changes. Simple things can make a difference.”
The above quote from their site sums it up well. Many people adopt “going green” and environmental awareness with an all or none attitude. If they can’t live their life completely in balance with nature, then they don’t do anything at all. That is not a good way to look at it. Every little bit can help, even if it is just a few small things here and there.
Some of my favorites from their list were:
- Turn off lights.
- Turn off computers at night.
- Re-think bottled water.
- Take a shorter shower.
- Shower with your partner.
There are obviously other benefits to the last one on that list besides saving water. I encourage you all to check out 50 Ways to Help the Planet and try to implement a few of them into your life. Also, the layout and icons on the site are beautifully designed.
What are some of the ways that you help the planet? Post a comment below and let us know!

Thanks for the resource. My number one way of helping out is buying less. The first R in the 3Rs is Reduce. In the past few years, I’ve become quite anticonsumerist, buying very little. I still enjoy shopping but rarely do I actually walk out of the store with anything. Usually looking is enough.
