At every environmental event, we tend to make a promise to Mother Earth that we will look after her and replenish her lost resources, but, do we keep that promise? Do we prioritize environmental benefits in our daily lives?

With Earth Day just around the corner, it’s time we make a promise to ourselves to get back to basics and avoid using plastic at all costs. Here are the important tips that will help you in figuring out how to reduce plastic use.

Trade In For Jute Bags

The first step to going green is to avoid using plastic bags. Yes, they are convenient and cheap, but they aren’t eco-friendly. So, stay true to your promise and go environment-friendly with jute shopping bags that you can take along with you while grocery shopping. A tiffin bag for you to carry your lunch box to work is another good idea. These steps will help reduce the harmful effects of plastic bags on the environment.

Invest In A Refillable Bottle

Instead of buying bottled water, why not carry along a refillable glass or stainless steel bottle? This will help you avoid using plastic bottles that are difficult to dispose of. Also, these bottles are not good for your health as they contain chemicals that interfere with your body’s hormones. Do yourself and the Earth a favour by not using them and instead, go in for refillable eco-friendly ones.

Carry Your Thermos Mug

Are you a coffee lover or a tea lover? Whichever one you identify with, do your bit for the environment by carrying a thermos mug along with you, whether it’s to work or a cafe. This will reduce the use of disposable plastic glasses, helping you go the eco-friendly way. Use eco-friendly mugs which are good for keeping your beverages hot for a long time too!

Use Eco-Friendly Kitchenware

Throw away everything plastic and usher in a new dawn with more eco-friendly kitchenware like bamboo mats, a wooden chopping board, a wooden knife stand, wooden bowls, bamboo trays and so on. Make sure you buy these items made from the purest quality materials.

Change To Glassware

Fear of breakage? Not a problem at all! You can always go in for double-walled glasses that are quite durable. Get beautiful glass sets that will add an elegant edge to your glassware collection. Avoid using disposable plastic glasses at parties and instead, bring out your sophisticated glasses. This will help you do your bit for the environment and at the same time give your party a classy touch.

This Earth Day, let’s change up our lifestyle choices and go the eco-friendly way. We need to start taking the necessary steps to help the environment. It’s time we stop taking and start giving back to Earth.
