Not only is having a healthy environment essential for the future of our planet, it is also important for our health and happiness currently! Here are a few easy ways you can help.

Do I need this?
One question that you can ask yourself in many situations to help the environment is "Do I need this?". It can apply to many things- do you really need that plastic bag for your shopping? Do you really need to have the light on when you aren't in the room? Do you really need to buy that new top when you already have a similar one that is still perfectly good? See what else you can apply this question to in your life to avoid being wasteful.

Is this in the right place?
When disposing of things, a good question to ask yourself is "Is this in the right place?". For each item you are disposing of, consider where it is best placed- in the rubbish bin? In the recycling? In the compost bin? Could it be re-used, or turned into something else? Could it be donated to charity? Many items are thrown out when they still have potential, and this question is a great way to avoid that issue.

What else could I do?
It's good to have an environmentally friendly daily routine, but there is always room for improvement. Asking yourself "What else could I do?" is a great way to get yourself thinking about future possibilities and opportunities. Try researching more ways to help the environment- there are so many out there that I just can't fit them all in one blog post!
