Happy Wednesday, fellow Environmentalists!
Let’s chat for a minute about land pollution. We talk a lot about water pollution, but let’s take a break for a beat and shift gears.
Land pollution comes in MANY forms:
➡️ Littering
➡️ Landfills
➡️ Agriculture
➡️ Deforestation
➡️ And more!
Land pollution doesn’t just mean putting CRAP in or on the ground that doesn’t belong there, oh no! It includes the degradation (making worse) of the earth’s surface! π±
π€ you may be asking yourself, “But, how can I help?” That’s easy. I try my hardest to come to y’all with SIMPLE, COMVENIENT solutions to help with these kinds of issues.
ππΌSMALL ππΌ CHANGES ππΌ CAN MAKE ππΌ A ππΌ BIG ππΌ DIFFERENCE! ππΌ
✅ Start a compost bin/pile
✅ Research how to PROPERLY recycle in your community, and DO IT!
✅ Stop littering!
✅ Pick up trash/litter, even if it’s not yours. The “it’s not my job” mentality has no room here!
✅ Commit to buying less single use items and more recyclable, reusable, or non-plastic items
✅ Get taking. We can’t hide from these issues. There’s no doubt about it. Talk with your family and friends.
✅ Be kind. We don’t get anywhere by talking at (or yelling at, for that matter) anyone. Have open, honest conversations. Honesty, is realizing that some of us won’t change our lifestyles unless it’s convenient to do so. Being honest gives us an opportunity to address the REAL issues that underline our inaction. For example, convenience is a must? Ok, research ways to incorporate change into your life with little to no impact on your daily life.
See my video about products I have purchased and tried to learn more about incorporating eco-friendly things into your everyday lives.
Remember, the earth will be just fine - with or without us. It’s HUMANS that need to fix the problem we created, so that we can continue to exist.
