Here are 10 simple ways to protect our nature

Think “reduce, reuse, recycle” Reduce the amount of waste you produce. To protect natural resources and land, adhere to the three “R’s”.

Volunteer. Participate in community cleanups by volunteering. You may contribute to the preservation of your watershed.

Educate: By increasing your education, you may educate others about the significance and worth of our natural resources.

Conserve water: The less water you consume, the less wastewater and runoff will ultimately end up in the ocean.

Buy things carefully. Bring a reusable shopping bag and purchase less plastic items.

Use light bulbs with a long life. Greenhouse gas emissions are reduced by using energy-efficient light bulbs. When leaving the room, be sure to turn off the lights as well

Sow a plant. Oxygen and food are produced by trees. They aid in energy conservation, air purification, and halting climate change.

No chemicals should be dumped into the waters. Pick non-toxic chemicals for your house and workplace.

Drive less cars, more cycles.
