Tips for Building Green World:
Building Green World
Humans have been enjoying the once inexhaustible earth’s natural resources for centuries but in the last few decades we have started exploiting the free resources. We have reached to the tipping point where we are sitting at the edge of sustainable development. Now we have two ways to proceed from here – either continue to exploit earth’s natural resources or shift to renewable and sustainable practices. The consequences of continuing to path one are well known so it’s wise for human beings to follow green building practices and live in harmony with nature.
We, as a common man can help building a green world in number of ways as stated below:
Grow more Trees: Don’t just think. Plant a tree today and you will feel enthusiastic. India has a population of more than 100 Crore and if everyone takes the responsibility of planting at least one tree, think the number of trees we will have cleaning the environment.
Reduce/Reuse/Recycle: Its called 3R principle. Reduce the wastage of energy, Reuse the items that can be reused and recycle the materials to have less load on earth.
Develop Roof Gardens: You might have heard of roof gardens. If you have limitation of space, you can effectively manage your roof area to grow some plants. This will not only make your environment clean, it will also reduce the load of your Air Conditioner.
Pay Bills Online: Register yourself for online billing. Pay your phone, electricity and utility bills online. Think how many papers will be saved and most importantly how many trees will be saved?
Go Digital: Watch local news channels, join local media forums online than subscribing for 2-3 newspapers. Read ebooks than purchasing new books. Save Papers Save Trees.
Use CFL: Use Compact Fluorescent lamps than the incandescent bulbs. A 15 watt CFL serves the purpose of a 60 watt bulb. So save electricity.
Delete Unwanted Messages Immediately: Do you know the messages that are stored in your email account consumes energy to be stored. Even your one search in a search engine consumes a lot of energy. According to Google, a Google search uses just about the same amount of energy that your body burns in ten seconds. So delete your unwanted and old messages immediately and try to limit your searches.
Don’t Waste Water: Limit the length of your showers. If possible use Mug and Bucket to take shower. Don’t run the tap while brushing. Use rain water harvesting system to save some pure water.
Save Fuel: Whenever possible use 2 wheeler for transportation. Turn off your vehicle for a stop of more than a minute. Use community taxi service than riding individual vehicles.
BECAUSE OF THIS WEB SEARCH I LITERALLY GOT PREPARED FOR MY COMPETITION
THANK YOU.
A very good list of ways to get going on helping the planet. Roof gardens are a viable method of living Green on multiple levels for those that have an appropriate roof. I have been in the environmentally conscious roofing business since 1980. I have saved numerous clients 39.9% on their air conditioning cost by installing our roof process, some less. When considering a roof garden waterproofing that roof should be a primary consideration. Nothing kills a good roof garden quicker than a leaking roof. Once the garden is installed it is much more costly and difficult to get the roof sound. The structural evaluation is best when it goes hand in hand with the watertight plan.
