Tweens and teens
Bigger kids will enjoy visiting thrift shops to nab pre-owned pieces that otherwise may have ended up in the landfill.
Don’t forget to encourage them to use reusable bags when shopping.
Have them unplug their electronics and chargers when not in use.
They can also turn off their desktop and gaming monitors when they aren’t using them.
Ask them to devise ways your house can collect rainwater for use on houseplants or flowers.
Turn off the lights when leaving the room. (Yes, you’ll probably still be working on this one with teens even though you’ve been preaching it since they were little!)
Recycle old cell phones. Make sure to take out SIM cards and erase the phones first, usually with a factory reset. Teens may also need to remove the battery and research how and where the battery can be recycled properly.
Use a timer to conserve water when taking a shower.
Remove makeup with cleanser and a reusable wipe instead of disposable wipes.
Host or volunteer at a hazardous electronic waste collection event.
