Give example of ways people can reduce waste and conserve natural resources.

1. Make sure to use your clothes washer and dryer only when you have a full load. You could save 1,000 gallons of water/month!

2.Water your lawn in the early morning when it is cooler and drier. Watering in mid-day, especially when it is hot and dry, leads to water evaporation. Watering in the evening can also work, but some lawn care experts say that can put your lawn at much higher risk for fungus and other grass ailments.

3.Pick up some reusable cloth bags to use at your local grocery store. Say no to both, “paper” and “plastic!” It can take up to a thousand years for plastic bags to degrade. Paper bags (although recyclable), aren’t much better. In the US alone, approximately 14,000,000 trees are cut down each year to be made into paper bags.

Hopefully I helped! ♡
