Every action we take makes an impact on the planet's health. But with small, thoughtful choices, we can reduce our carbon footprint right from our daily routine.
Private vehicles are a major source of CO₂ emissions. Switching to public transport or carpooling cuts fuel use and lowers your daily carbon impact.
Uneaten food often ends up in landfills and releases methane, a greenhouse gas. Planning meals and storing leftovers well helps cut emissions from food waste.
Unplug devices when not in use. Switching to LED lights and energy-efficient appliances helps cut electricity consumption and emissions.
Fast fashion generates tonnes of textile waste. Opting for durable clothing and buying less frequently significantly lowers your carbon footprint.
Plastic is petroleum-based and energy-intensive to produce. Choosing reusable bags, bottles and containers can reduce both waste and emissions.
Every litre of water used requires energy to treat and pump. Fixing leaks, using low-flow taps and shorter showers can reduce energy use.
Installing solar panels or opting for green electricity plans supports clean energy and lowers dependence on fossil fuels at a household level.
Recycling is good but reducing and reusing is better. Every item we save from landfills helps conserve energy and natural resources.
