- Reduce, reuse and recycle. It may be clich?, but it still holds true. Reducing your usage, reusing what you can - such as buying used instead of new products - and recycling your trash are still the easiest ways to make a difference.
- Plant trees around your home. Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, produce oxygen, provide homes for birds and other wildlife, reduce noise pollution and help cool your home.
