1. When brushing your teeth, use water from a cup. Put a bottle of water in the water cistern of the toilet so that you do not use so much water to flush. (maybe when you are thirsty you can take that water in the bottle to drink. haha...urgh) Take a shower than a bath.(That way you can save time too!)Don't pour away excess water. Use it to water the flowers or tell your dad to wash his car with it!)
In short, just reduce water usage.
2. Don't take plastic bags when you don't need them....and bring your own bag .
Lets say Dick goes into 711 to buy a piece of chocolate, and requests for a plastic bag which he, upon reaching home, disposes of it. What would you think?
Next, it would be better to bring your own bag to shopping. That way, you would not complain about tearing plastic bags and the irritating sound of it. It will save the earth!!!! (Good thing NTUC charges 10 cents for every plastic bag)
3. Don't waste paper!!!
Please cut down usage on toilet paper, kitchen towels and tissues. Surely you don't need that much.
When using blank paper, foolscap, or anykind of paper, please use both sides if possible. Please
do not write something on a piece of paper, and if you do not like it, don't crush it up and throw
it away. Just erase it and start over.
If everyone were to do their part in saving the environment, the world would be a better place.
