learning for sustainable environment

Sustainability is about taking what we need to live now, without jeopardising the potential for people in the future to meet their needs.

Actions that would improve the sustainability of my lifestyle are the way I do my shopping.
As a mother of two toddlers it is import when shopping to buy product that can easily be recycle. For examples buying products like whole life milk, plastic bottle oil, cereals, can drinks and plastic bottle juice. After using the milk container I always washes them before putting it away in the recycle bins. I tied old newspapers and cereals empty boxes nicely. Because I wanted to improve on be friendly to the environment, I don’t want to put people life at risk. The reason why I will make sure that all my recycle and my house waste will be put away nice and tide so that my rubbish bags will not be tore easily by animals before been decomposed.

Reason that will prevent me from recycle properly is how I do my recycle. To put glass bottles, plastic bottles and empty drinks cans in the same recycle bin is due to the reason that there are no place in my area where I can do proper recycle, so that the reason why I have to put them in the same recycle containers or pink recycle plastic bags.

  1. i KNOW WE CAN ALWAYS BUY THINGS WITH CONTAINERS THAT YOU CAN RECYCLE ONCE YOU ARE DONE WITH THEM, BUT IT IS NOT ALWAYS EASY ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE A RESTRICTED BUDGET.
