Do you have any of the top 10 air-purifying plants? 👇🏼 . . . . According to the World Health Organization, 3.8 million deaths are attributed to household air pollution annually.⁣ ⁣. Indoor air pollutants include mould, building materials, home products, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and naturally occurring gases like radon.⁣ ⁣. The NASA researched ways to clean indoor air in space stations back in the 1980's.⁣ ⁣. They identified air-purifying plants that are highly effective at cleaning the air from pollutants.⁣ ⁣. The TOP 10 air-purifying plants are:⁣ - Aloe Vera⁣ - Areca Palm⁣ - Bamboo Palm⁣ - Boston Fern⁣ - Devil’s Ivy/Money Plant⁣ - Dracaena⁣ - English Ivy⁣ - Ficus/Weeping Fig/Rubber Plant⁣ - Mother in Law’s Tongue/Snake Plant⁣ - Philodendron⁣ ⁣. It is recommended to have one of those every 100 square feet of indoor space. Easy! ⁣ . . . . . . . ✅Follow @helpzerowaste to get more daily Sustainable, ECO & Zero Waste tips ——————————————————- @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste ✅Like, Comment and Tag your friends to spread the message .

Cigarette butts don’t belong in the ocean. One single cigarette butt contaminates 200 liters of water. If you want to smoke, that's your decision. But please don't harm the oceans, lakes, and seas the fish and sea life with the toxins in your cigarette butts 🚬 These are two 1.5 liter bottles stuffed to the top with cigarettes we collected at the beach in only 2 hours!! 🙌🏻 ✅Follow @helpzerowaste to get more daily Sustainable, ECO & Zero Waste tips ——————————————————- @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste ✅Like, Comment and Tag your friends to spread the message Credit @claraveganna . .⠀ . . . .⠀ . . . .⠀ . . . #cleanseas #noplastic #greenliving #plasticfree #beatplasticpollution #uselessplastic #plasticpollution #climatechangeisreal #climateaction #environment #plasticpollutes #sustainability #planetorplastic #saveouroceans #plasticfreeliving #gogreen #breakfreefromplastic #saynotoplastic #zerowaste #noplanetb #climatechange #climatecrisis #environmentallyfriendly #protectnature #spain #algarrobo #spain🇪🇸 https://www.instagram.com/p/CIk8Uoun5ux/?igshid=1eli1jqmfws4

If you're not already on the secondhand train, here are few reasons that might help you get on board!⁠⁠ ⁠ 💚 👕 So many reasons to choose secondhand items! Shopping pre-loved is one of my favorite ways to participate in the sustainable fashion movement. ⁠⠀⁠ ⁠⠀⁠ It's affordable, eco-friendly, zero waste (or low waste really since there's usually packaging and shipping still involved), and it's so satisfying to find that special one-of-a-kind piece you wouldn't be able to find anywhere else or to uncover a gorgeous quality garment at an amazing price. 😍⁠⠀⁠ ✅Follow @helpzerowaste to get more daily Sustainable, ECO & Zero Waste tips ——————————————————- @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste ✅Like, Comment and Tag your friends to spread the message Credit @consciousstyle . .⠀ . . . .⠀ . . . .⠀ . . . #climateaction #environment #plasticpollutes #sustainability #gogreen #cleanseas #noplastic #sustainableliving #wastefree #greenliving #plasticpollution #plasticfree #beatplasticpollution #uselessplastic #planetorplastic #saynotoplastic #zerowaste #noplanetb #climatechange #climatecrisis #environmentallyfriendly #thinkgreen #beatpollution #environmentalist #reuserevolution #secondhandfashion #sustainablefashion (at Planet Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIeggzcnhcN/?igshid=1kj1bm9x8yj10

Ecologist Mark Browne at the University College Dublin added found that 85 percent of the microfibres discovered on shorelines were human-made materials commonly used in synthetic apparel made from such fabrics as polyester and acrylic. He also found that a synthetic garment could release up to 1,900 microfibres when washed in a washing machine. Worse still, researchers at the University of Plymouth, found that a 6kg wash load could release more than 700,000 microfibres! Since some of these fibers aren’t captured at the wastewater treatment facility due to their size and abnormal shapes, they end up in our oceans!! 😱💔🌊 Follow best washing practices 🧺 Wash less often and at lower temperatures to preserve fabrics. Reduce spin speeds and only wash full loads to limit friction. Air dry when possible⁣ ☀️ ✅Follow @helpzerowaste to get more daily Sustainable, ECO & Zero Waste tips ——————————————————- @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste ✅Like, Comment and Tag your friends to spread the message Credit @ecocentral_ https://www.instagram.com/p/CIIhzsrnZvX/?igshid=1f0jwjy4yfuj

If you celebrate Christmas, which type of tree do you prefer? 🎄 Tag someone who's trying to be more eco friendly! . According to Science Focus, "a 2m [6.6 ft] �tall real tree that ends up in a wood chipper or bonfire has a carbon footprint of 3.5kg of carbon dioxide (CO2). If the tree ends up as landfill, the footprint increases significantly to 16kg CO2." . As for artificial trees, Science Direct said it would take about 12 years of reusing the same artificial tree to make the carbon footprint less than a real tree! 🤯 ✅Follow @helpzerowaste to get more daily Sustainable, ECO & Zero Waste tips ——————————————————- @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste ✅Like, Comment and Tag your friends to spread the message (at Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIF32Odnz6A/?igshid=iey2eb683y3g

Posted @withregram • @easyecotips Toss them and grow plants everywhere you go! Choose local seeds to avoid disturbing eco-systems 🌿 . Making seed balls and throwing them around is a fun activity to do with kids or even with friends! . Throw them onto bare soil. No need to dig or water. When the seeds begin to germinate, the ball breaks apart. The small pile of crumbles provides the start for the roots. . Seed balls can be tossed into abandoned lots, on roadside wasteland, in unused planters or simply in your garden. . Just make sure you choose non-invasive and local species to avoid disrupting the eco-systems. . Ingredients: 2 parts potting soil 5 parts pottery clay mix 1-2 parts water 1-2 parts seeds of your choice . 1️⃣ Mix the soil, clay and water. There should be no lumps. 2️⃣ Add the seeds. Keep kneading the dough until the seeds are well mixed in. Add more water if necessary. 3️⃣ Make small balls. 4️⃣ Dry them for 24-48h in a shady place. 5️⃣ Place them or throw them onto bare soil. No need to dig or water. ✅Follow @helpzerowaste to get more daily Sustainable, ECO & Zero Waste tips ——————————————————- @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste ✅Like, Comment and Tag your friends to spread the message (at Planet Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIARafyHtYu/?igshid=1qich7qoihbjr

Heartbreaking isn't it? . Unfortunately, scientists have shown that plastic bags in the ocean not only look like jellyfish, but also smell like food! . A US study showed that after a while, microbes, algae, plants and tiny animals start to colonise the plastic bags. . This creates a scent that attracts many marine animals, including turtles, whales or even birds. . Their instinct will guide them towards these areas that are now full of trash, making them believe all this trash is actually food. . Remember, millions of tons of plastic waste ends up in the ocean each year. One example of this is the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, the largest concentration of marine debris in the world. . It is located in the Pacific Ocean, and is estimated to be 1.6 million km2, around three times the size of France, or two times the size of Texas, and growing. The vast majority of debris is made of micro plastics that can’t be seen by the naked eye. . And this has an impact on humans too! . A study by the University of Newcastle in Australia has found that in average, people ingest 5 grams of plastic every week, or 2,000 micro plastic particles. This is equivalent to eating a credit card every week! . Micro plastics can be found in fish, but can also be found in water, beer, shellfish or salt. Drinking water has the highest concentration of micro plastics, and bottled water is even worse! Shellfish and salt follow. . What can we do? . The only way to reduce the amount of plastic and micro plastics in the ocean is to reduce the amount of plastic we use. #reduce #reuse #recycle  . ✅Follow @helpzerowaste to get more daily Sustainable, ECO & Zero Waste tips ——————————————————- @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste @helpzerowaste ✅Like, Comment and Tag your friends to spread the message Credit @easyecotips (at Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHwk-WWn34n/?igshid=75jyc37r9lok
