To take care of the environment, it is essential to know the necessary methodologies to reduce the amount of waste that we generate in our homes, since this waste ends up accumulating in large landfills, which in the long run can cause bad smells and diseases for the surrounding communities. 

Therefore, we recommend that you avoid the use of plastic bags, bringing your own when you need it. In the same way, you can start by preferring products with recyclable or biodegradable packaging, in addition to using a returnable bottle when you need to transport liquids. Educating children on environmental issues is also an important point, teaching them that they are responsible for the waste they generate and showing them, through example, how to separate organic from inorganic waste, such as cans, plastics and cardboard. A good idea is to let them accompany you to your nearest green spot when you go to dispose of these last mentioned waste.

By applying these tips to your lifestyle you could become a true ecological activist!
