Do one thing a week that tends toward our environment. The environmental movement began with the creation of Earth Day in 1970. The purpose of the day is to raise public awareness of environmental problems and to promote actions that will protect our planet. The focus of Earth Day 2018 is plastic pollution, which threatens the beauty of the landscape and the lives of animals. According to the United Nations, eight million tons of plastic end up in our oceans every year. By 2025, that number will increase to 160 million tonnes. This plastic soup is over the area of twice the size of the United States.


Try reducing your meat consumption. While we don't need to cut out completely, beef consumption puts a strain on the meat industry and the animals involved. In addition to animal welfare issues, beef production also contributes to environmental damage by using a large amount of water and emitting greenhouse gases. If you can't give up meat altogether, try reducing your meat intake or switching to a vegetarian diet.

Don't chew gum. While it might be tempting, most chewing gum contains synthetic rubber. That means that a lot of it ends up in the garbage, which is not good for the environment. Plus, it can make your breath smell bad! To save our environment, stop chewing gum. This is made of plastic and can lead to bad breath. Instead, chew a piece of wood or an apple.

Reduce your meat consumption. Meat-eating puts pressure on the meat industry. Not only does it create animal welfare problems, it also damages the environment. In addition to being unhealthy for animals, beef consumption contributes to climate change and causes a large amount of greenhouse gases. Avoiding beef consumption will help reduce the amount of plastic waste in our oceans. Even if you love steak and hamburgers, try switching to a vegetarian diet.

Cut back on meat. Eating meat puts a strain on our environment and puts pressure on the beef industry. It can cause animal welfare problems, as well as causing many greenhouse gasses. If you must eat beef, try to cut down your consumption. You can also switch to a vegetarian diet if you enjoy eating a variety of meat. This will help you reduce your carbon footprint.

Try to eat less meat. This will help the environment and animals. Meat production is one of the biggest causes of pollution. In addition to animal welfare, it causes environmental damage. Beef production is a major contributor to greenhouse gases and water. So it is important to cut down on your meat consumption and try to go vegetarian. You can also try to cut down on your amount of sugar intake.
