My Ways of Saving the Environment in Accordance with Greta Thunberg
Greta Thunberg, a climate activist and Swedish student, was unexpectedly catapulted into
the global scene when what started as a single-person school boycott outside the Swedish
parliament galvanized a worldwide climate movement demanding rapid action to avert
environmental disaster. Thunberg's school protest expanded across Sweden and the globe,
generating a youth-led worldwide climate strike movement known as Fridays for the Future,
which pushed for carbon emission reductions. Thunberg attributes her honesty and dedication as
a climate fighter to her Asperger's condition, which is considered a kind of autism. I would assist
environmentalist Thunberg by adopting environmentally friendly practices such as reducing
commodity consumption, minimize meat consumption and participating in enrollment
conservation initiatives.
I'd contribute to environmental preservation by consuming less commodities.
Consumption reductions may significantly influence the environment (Thunberg 24). We hear
many about the three "R's": reduce, reuse, and recycle (Thunberg 23). But there's one "R" that
gets overlooked: refuse. When I reject, I use "no," which is not quite an easy word to pronounce.
None of them are necessary: freebies at events, discounted merchandise on sale, the hottest
trendy children's toys, or the newest devices that promise to improve my life. And they nearly
invariably end up in the garbage or the back of a closet, forgotten. When I am tempted to acquire
or acquire a non-essential thing in the future, I will consider if it would enhance my life.

I would contribute to environmental protection by reducing my meat and dairy intake. If
the world is to avert catastrophic climate change, meat consumption in the western world must
decline by 90% (Zhanda et al. 89). Livestock consumption causes methane emissions into the
environment and requires deforestation to house livestock like chickens and cows. The
environment is the primary source of life for all organisms on the world's surface. Meat-eating
patterns have jeopardized the lives of all living things on Earth (Zhanda et al. 90). Because not
all species can survive, fatalities have occurred, which must be avoided. Unsustainable dairy
farming results in the loss of ecologically significant habitats such as swamps and forests.
Therefore, I can avoid causing further harm by being responsible and consuming less meat.
Another strategy I can use to save the environment is supporting environmental initiatives
by engaging in practices to preserve them. Changes that benefit the environment, such as the
prohibition of plastic wrappers and bottles, should be accepted (Murphy 193). In agriculture, it is
advised that organic fertilizers be utilized to reduce chemical washouts into bodies of water. By
volunteering with local organizations and helping out in the community, I can make a difference
in the environment. Physical help, like collecting trash or raising money for environmental
conservation, and administrative tasks, like public relations or legal help, are all ways I can help.
Thus, if I can dispose of any garbage in my everyday activities, I will be conserving the
environment.
In conclusion, I would support environmentalist Thunberg by participating in enrollment
conservation programs and adopting environmentally friendly behaviors such as lowering
consumption, limiting meat consumption, and participating in enrollment conservation
initiatives. I'd do my part to help the environment by consuming less. Reducing my meat and

dairy consumption would help to safeguard the environment. Another way I can help the
environment is by participating in environmental activities.
