Tip 21: Order Fewer Items Online
We know. The thought of giving up online shopping entirely is stressful, especially when you’re not able to shop in-person during the quarantine. But hear us out.
Did you know that 165 billion packages are shipped in the US each year by Amazon alone? Every single item you order requires a cardboard shipping box. The amount of trees needed to create enough cardboard to ship all those packages is more than 1 billion trees. Now think about the other online retailers you shop from. Consider just how many trees – and boxes – will be used just to ship your items.
If you simply can’t reduce your online shopping habit, at least make sure to properly recycle your cardboard shipping boxes. Recycling one ton of cardboard saves 17 trees. You might never recycle one ton yourself, but when you do your part, it absolutely adds up!
How can you introduce more (organic or natural) fresh vegetables and fruits into your diet? How could this impact the environment? How could a home garden contribute to your and your family's overall health?
