Tips for Reducing your Carbon
          Footprint 1




                        Part I of 3 in the Tips for
                        Reducing your Carbon
                        Footprint Series
Plastic Water Bottles
          • Plastic water bottles
            are not good for the
            earth and may contain
            chemicals.

          • To combat this you can
            invest in a good ole’
            reusable water bottle
            made from stainless
            steel or #5
            polypropylene plastic.
Reusable Water Bottles
           • Fill up your reusable
             water bottle at home
             using the tap.

           • If you or your parents
             are not comfortable
             with drinking from the
             tap, think about
             installing a filter on the
             faucet.
Product Packaging
        • Before you decide to
          buy something, think
          about how much
          packaging will have
          to be thrown away.

        • Buy things that you
          know can be
          recycled.
Recycled Packaging
         • Buy things made of
           materials that have
           already been recycled.

         • Talk to your family
           about buying products
           in bulk, which uses less
           packaging.
Reusing Materials
        • Reusing things is a great
          way to decrease the
          amount of trash you throw
          away.

        • Keep a cloth towel by the
          sick if ever you need to
          clean up a spill.

        • By doing this you will
          decrease your use of paper
          towels; therefore using
          less.
Save & Reuse
      • Save plastic bags you
        get when shopping
        and use them again.

      • Save old ratty
        clothing and use
        them as cleaning
        rags.
Reusable Containers
         • If you make your lunch
           from home, store it in
           reusable containers.

         • Websites like the
           Container Store sell
           tons of reusable
           containers in all shapes
           and sizes.
