Hello readers,
I’m writing from home today rather than my usual location in Nunawading. I’m going to be writing about Earth Day, which is on the 22nd of April. The Earth Day theme is “Our Power, Our Planet,” and it is about raising awareness of protecting the environment and encouraging people to take action on issues like pollution, climate change, and sustainability.
You can support Earth Day by making simple choices like reducing waste, recycling, using less plastic, saving energy and water, choosing eco-friendly transport, and taking part in local clean-up or environmental activities.
Some examples I do at home include buying meat from the butcher to reduce plastic packaging, putting my fruit and vegetables directly in the shopping basket instead of using plastic bags, and trying to carry a reusable bag so I don’t use as many plastic bags.
I also use refillable products, such as my glasses cleaner, which I take back to the optometrist to refill for free when needed. I also turn off power points when I’m not using them and small changes can contribute to better Earth.
Thanks for reading my blog.
