Waste has a huge negative impact on the environment, releasing harmful chemicals and greenhouse gases when rubbish is in landfill sites. Recycling helps to reduce the pollution that is caused by waste, while also reducing the need for raw materials. Recycling is really easy to do; all you need is dedicated bins in your home for each category and you\u2019re ready to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As well as recycling, you should also get into the habit of upcycling. This is when you take an old product, or the materials of an old product, and turn it into something new! For example, if you want to change the colour scheme of your home, instead of throwing out old furniture and replacing it why not considering revamping it? Using eco-friendly furniture paint you can give an old product a whole new life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<!-- Links Ads- Horizontal -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0548205572604330\" data-ad-slot=\"9920129301\" data-ad-format=\"link\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0548205572604330\" data-ad-slot=\"1456790708\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">REDUCE PLASTIC USE<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Plastic is one of the leading causes of environmental damage, taking thousands of years to biodegrade. Plastic takes up valuable space in landfill sites and is polluting the natural environment. Although most plastic is recyclable, single-use plastics (such as water bottles and plastic cups) often end up in landfills.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are simple changes you can make to reduce your plastic use at home. Start by making smart choices when shopping \u2013 if there is an option to buy the product you want in a non-plastic container, choose that brand instead. You\u2019ll be surprised at how much less plastic you use just from making this small change. You can also get metal straws, metal bottles and biodegradable bin bags to reduce your plastic use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ready to help our planet? Making your home more eco-friendly is a great place to start. These are just a few of the simple switches you can make to decrease your carbon footprint and help the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0548205572604330\" data-ad-slot=\"1456790708\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block\" data-ad-format=\"autorelaxed\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0548205572604330\" data-ad-slot=\"9687113448\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eco-Friendly:\u00a0More and more people are beginning to go green to help save the planet, which is great!
