HOW TO SUPPORT THE PLANET WITHOUT LIFTING A FINGER - INTERMEDIATE 2
Feel exhausted just thinking about the environment? If the energy you want to save is primarily your own, try these close to effortless actions.
You Will Need
* Webcam
* Microwave
* Dishwasher
How to Support the Planet Without Lifting a Finger: Have a videoconference
Step 1: Have a videoconference
It’s bad enough going to work, but having to take a business trip? Good grief! Get a webcam for your computer and videoconference instead from your office or, even better, your home. You’ll save the energy that would have been expended on the flight, rental car, and hotel stay while saving yourself the hassle of having to put on pants.
How to Support the Planet Without Lifting a Finger: Use the microwave
Step 2: Use the microwave
Cooking a meal? Forget gas and electric ovens and make it in a microwave; it uses up to 9.5 percent less electricity, produces fewer indoor pollutants, and decreases temperature changes that affect your thermostat. Plus, you’ll have lots of extra time for your favorite activity — doing nothing.
How to Support the Planet Without Lifting a Finger: Wait to shave
Step 3: Wait to shave
Shaving’s so annoying and it uses a gallon of water on average. So, men, grow a beard; ladies, wear pants or proudly sport hairy legs. If you don’t like the wild look, fill the sink halfway and rinse your razor, rather than running it under the tap; it doesn’t take that much effort to turn off the faucet.
How to Support the Planet Without Lifting a Finger: Turn to the dishwasher
Step 4: Turn to the dishwasher
When it’s time to wash the dishes, don’t. Leave them in the sink until you have a full load; then, use a dishwasher rather than washing them by hand — you’ll save yourself a lot of work along with an average of 5,000 gallons of water per year.
No need to unload either — just take clean dishes out of the dishwasher until the sink is full; then, load it up again.
How to Support the Planet Without Lifting a Finger: Leave the clippings
Step 5: Leave the clippings
When you finally get around to mowing the lawn, don’t bother picking up the clippings; they add nutrients to the soil and won’t take up space in landfills. Plus, you can stop doing yard work sooner and get back where you really belong — the couch.
HOW TO PREVENT GLOBAL WARMING - READING FOR INTERMEDIATE 2
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is essential to prevent global warming, part of the broader environmental concern of climate change. Here are some ways to help that may surprise you. Click on the link or just read the tips. On the website you may leave your say too.
How to Help Prevent Global Warming
Step 1: Live in a city
Live in a city: Urbanites own fewer cars, tend to live in energy-efficient apartment buildings, and don’t have much need for powered lawn mowers, a major contributor to greenhouse gases.
Painting a roof white reduces the energy needed to both heat and cool a building.
Step 2: Don’t assume local is better
Don’t assume that buying local is always better. Food miles — the distance food travels from farm to table — isn’t the only factor to consider: 80 percent of the carbon emissions from food production occur before shipping, and industrial farms tend to be more energy-efficient than smaller ones.
Step 3: Eat less meat
Eat less meat. The average American carnivore contributes 1.5 more tons of greenhouse gases per year than the average vegetarian. If you can’t keep away from beef, organic may be better for your body but not necessarily help prevent global warming: An organically raised cow emits 16 percent more greenhouse gases than a standard one.
Producing red meat generates 4 times the greenhouse gas emissions as an equal amount of chicken or fish.
Step 4: Support nuclear power
Don’t discount nuclear power if you want to help prevent global warming. Yes, there are safety and security concerns. But when it comes to large-scale energy sources, nuclear power is more climate-friendly than coal, gas, and even wind.
Step 5: Practice the three R’s
Practice the three R’s — Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. And don’t give recyclables more than a quick rinse: For each ton of recycled plastic, consumers waste about 10 tons of water cleaning it.
