Do you say this to your self or anybody. What actually what do you do for environment? I recycle every single recyclable thing ( cans, glasses, paper) beside that leave all the lights off if unnecessary even tv's,printer's standby lights, don't use water unnecessary, i wash my vegetables in a big bowl and use this water to water plant, try not to use house odors or similar sprays, and so on. Let me know if you have some other things you are doing. I will like to learn new stuff!!! thank you all

i do my little bit towards environment.i try to reduce these plastic carry bags,i always keeps a couple of carry bags in my hand bag bring the purchaged goods in them. and i take cloth bag with me.i tell every shop keeper i do not need a carry bag.even then we are getting bogged down by these plastic bags.the sellers used to charge money to provide carry bags once upon a time.now a days what ever we buy its wrapped in clear plastic and will be put in to a colored bag.animals are dying due these plastic bags.they fly around all over the place.they choke the drains.please somebody invent bio degradable plastic bags.they will disintegrate slowly become part of the earth.i wish people realize the value of saving water.in this place we did not have rains for a long time,there is water scarcity.people are not getting enough drinking water.even now people sprinkle water in front of their houses wash their cars,wash the leaves of their fencing around their houses.stupids.

I do all those things that you do. I also try not to use the car if it can be avoided. I don't go on foreign holidays, which is probably one of the major causes of pollution (air travel). I grow some vegetables. I don't use any chemicals in the garden, and leave lots of places in the garden untouched for wildlife.

Hello katsalot, I have a small garden here too, I planted lots of vegetables, ( tomatoes, eggplants, cucumbers, beans, strawberries, radish, parsley etc...) in the house now, in my spare room. I will plant them out when wheather is good outside ( approximately ) in few weeks. My plan is not to use any chemicals either, since it is now very hard to find a healthy vegetable in groceries,) Thank you for your answer and have a great day!
