Living Green Prevent Ecological Crisis

Our world continues to deteriorate as natural cataclysms, nuclear power plant issues and general apathy evokes havoc. This earth will soon be gone unless its citizens make an effort to do something about it. There is a climbing population, there is corruption, and there is big time pollution. The best thing for people today is to turn to green living.
Many people do not actually understand what living green is all about. Anything that you do that produces a beneficial effect on the environment is green living.
And the easiest thing is to become vegan that everyone can do. These are things that we must do so that the younger generation will have a healthy earth to live. The ultimate goal for green living is to have the Earth in ecological balance. Not only that, but green living cleanses the surroundings by flushing toxins out of the environment. When we decide to live green, our earth will be a better place for everyone and we can maintain it for a very long time.
Nature itself is fighting to keep its balance as it is being attacked from all sides. There are numerous places in the world where water is decreasing. Nowadays we live in a concrete jungle, with the elimination of numerous forests and trees, that there are hardly any trees or plants around. There is a great deal of pollution, and the air is so awful, that when commuting from one place to another, it is tough to travel the distance without being grimy on arrival.
Our children or grandchildren will live in a world where oil or trees don't exist anymore and the earth would fall apart. Each day, our world is slowly being obliterated but no one appears to be paying attention. Our society is being assailed by the many disturbances in the world. Our planet is struggling to deal with the ecological crisis, global recession and fiscal crisis. Each day money is being spent on frivolous things while crucial issues are being neglected. Very little money is being used on improving the health of our planet or promoting green living.
What steps do we need to take so that we are in the habit of being green. Can work together and conserve water, use less power and plant new trees. Are we making an attempt to clean up the environment for later generations? Is everyone on the planet doing their best to reduce pollution? Is the number of men and women who love green enough to protect our succeeding generations? There is not a lot of time that remains so we need to work right away to live green.



Tips  To Cut Your Energy Bills
1. Electricity
Although light don't consume an awful lot of power its the combines effects of a lot of lights over a long period of time that does the real damage. The first step you can take is to replace all the light bulbs in your home with energy efficient light bulbs. These use about 40% less power and still provide the same lighting levels. For external lights you can use solar powered lights which won't use any power and they work great with the same amount of energy.

2. Water

One of the biggest "gas guzzlers" in a home is hot water. If a family of 4 each take two showers a day then that is a lot of power. Heating water takes a lot of energy and if you can cut down on shower times then it can make a big difference. You should also stop taking baths as far as possible because it uses 4 to 6 times as much hot water. If you could, look into installing a hot water system that uses solar heat to heat your water. It can save you a lot over time.

3. Appliances

One of the most basic steps you can take to save on electricity is to unplug and disconnect appliances when you are not using them. Even just leaving televisions, computers and DVD players on "stand by" actually uses (and wastes) a lot of power. The same goes for charging mobile phones. When its charges, unplug it. Don't just leave it to charge overnight as it will probably charge in 2 hours and spend the other 6 wasting power.

To go  green, is a  simple matter of making choices that go green that including setting up a mindful attemp to choose enviromentally friendly gooods such as organically grown food items or maybe growing your own using available technology and resources to make your green home as efficient as it can be and adapting yourself and your family to green lifestyle.
Living green  is a smart choice for yourself and your family. Not only is it better for the environment and our world, but green living also equates to healthier living for you, small farmers, and the world as a whole.
