It’s important to think about how each of us are doing our part to save the planet. So, let’s talk about the ways we might already be doing that. To help reduce your carbon footprint, you can use cloth towels instead of paper towels and reuse glass containers from store-bought sauces in place of plastic storage containers. You could also be consistently recycling your plastic, paper and aluminum!

Those are just a few classics, but there are so many other things you can do to reduce your waste. For example, composting! Composting can help lower the amount of food waste that goes into the trash. Instead of throwing away fruit peels, eggshells, and vegetable scraps, among others, you can compost it and turn it into rich soil to use in a garden!
