Master online banking
Paying bills online not only saves time, but also saves a tree. And if instead of paper receipts, statements, printouts you will use electronic ones, the number of saved trees will be in the thousands.
Don’t print out letters
Experts estimate that in Europe about 700 billion unnecessary pages are printed every year. Try to print only the documents you really need. And if possible, use both sides of the paper.
Save money on packaging
Everyone loves to receive beautifully wrapped gifts. But in most cases you can not tear the paper furiously, but carefully unwrap the gift and reuse the packaging.
Plant a tree
Next New Year buy a small potted Christmas tree (from 149 rubles), dress it up, water it for a few months and then plant it in the garden in the spring.
Leave the world eco-friendly
There is an alternative to wooden coffins: rattan coffins. Or you can even have a funeral using only a shroud. Coffins made of wood panels, which contain formaldehyde, emit poisonous gases when burned, and being in the ground harms the ecological system – the same formaldehyde and glue get into the groundwater. There are already certified coffins for environmentally friendly incineration, and in some countries there is a “green” burial in the forest or in the meadow.
