Conserve Energy, Conserve the Planet: A Call to Action

In our everyday actions, we often overlook the impact they have on our planet. From the flick of a light switch to the turn of a key in an ignition, we consume energy derived from precious resources, which in turn contributes to climate change, dwindling ecosystems, and the loss of species. However, we have the power to change this narrative. By conserving energy, we can create a brighter, cleaner, and more sustainable future for ourselves and generations to come. Let’s explore some simple yet effective ways to conserve energy and protect our planet.

Small Changes, Big Impact:

Conserving energy doesn’t have to be complicated or burdensome. It starts with small changes in our daily lives. Turn off lights and appliances when not in use, opt for energy-efficient products, and consider alternative modes of transportation such as biking or public transit. These simple steps can make a significant difference in reducing our energy consumption and carbon footprint.

Embracing Renewable Energy:

Supporting renewable energy sources is another crucial aspect of conserving energy. By embracing solar and wind power, we can reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and contribute to a more sustainable energy future. Consider investing in solar panels for your home or advocating for renewable energy policies in your community. Together, we can create a greener and healthier planet.

Reducing Single-Use Products:

A lesser-known aspect of energy conservation is reducing our reliance on single-use products. Items like plastic bags and disposable utensils not only contribute to waste but also require a considerable amount of energy to produce and dispose of. By opting for reusable alternatives, we not only save energy but also help protect our natural resources and mitigate climate change.

Advocating for Change:

Energy conservation goes beyond our individual actions. It requires collective efforts and advocacy for change on a larger scale. Support political initiatives and policies that prioritize renewable energy sources. Encourage businesses and organizations to adopt sustainable practices. By raising our voices and working together, we can create a more sustainable future for ourselves and generations to come.

Testimonials from Youth Changemakers:

To inspire and motivate youth to save the environment and energy, let’s hear from some young changemakers who have made a significant impact:

“I realized that every time I turned off unnecessary lights, I was not only saving energy but also contributing to a healthier planet. It’s empowering to know that my small actions matter.” — Greta Thunberg, 20, Sweden.

“By installing solar panels on our school rooftop, we not only reduced our energy costs but also taught the entire school community about the benefits of renewable energy. We are showing that sustainability is achievable.” — Licypriya Kangujam, 11, India.

“Switching to a bike for my daily commute not only saves me money but also reduces my carbon footprint. It’s amazing how a simple change can have such a positive impact on the environment.” — Isra Hirsi, 20, United States.

“Through our environmental club, we organized a campaign to reduce single-use plastic on campus. Seeing the positive response from students and staff made me realize the power of collective action in conserving energy and protecting our planet.” — Melati Wijsen, 22, Indonesia.

oday we are starting a KNOW THE INGREDIENT series, where every week we will focus on one common ingredient in health and beauty products and analyse the impact of those chemicals on our body and environment. This week let's look at DIOXIN - a common ingredient in sanitary pads, shampoos, soaps, deodorants, cream etc. Dioxin is highly toxic and causes many hormonal and digestive tract issues. It is also believed to contribute to the development of many cancers. While 'any' amount of chemical is not suitable for 'any' part of the body, it is especially notorious for causing reproductive issues. Talk about Dioxin in sanitary pads, so close to the highly porous vaginal area, can be absorbed rather easily and cause major damage. Time to heal the body & mind with nature and natural solutions. #nowasteliving #goingzerowaste #zerowastelife #wastefree #ditchplastic #zerowasteliving #zerowastehome #lessplastic #lifewithoutplastic #zerowastejourney #lowwasteliving #wastefreeliving #ecofriendlyliving #wasteless #reducewaste #reducereuserecycle #thereisnoplanetb #noplanetb #savetheplanet #sustainablelifestyle #lowimpactmovement #sustainabilitymatters #zerowastecommunity #livesustainably #minimalwaste #reduceplasticwaste #earthfriendly #consciousconsumer #goinggreen #wastefreeplanet

Personal Life: Living stereotypically sustainable is something that I, as a college student, find nearly impossible due to lack of money, lack of space, and lack of community resources. There is no available recycling near me and the most affordable and convenient foods are microwavable or processed just to name two reasons.

My parents have started living almost completely sustainably. Since I went to college, they moved to central Florida and significantly downsized. Their home is completely solar powered by panels on the roof and they rarely use lights because of skylights and an open floorplan. They don’t use a heater and only use A/C during intense summer temperatures. Other days, they just open the windows and doors. They grow their own herbs, some vegetables, and citrus and get meat from the local farmers market every week. This past year they switched to an electric car, but most often use a golf cart to run groceries and do other small errands.

For what it’s Earth, I have found that you don’t have to change your whole life like my parents have done. Everything you can do helps. Wanting to be sustainable in a college town that does not value sustainability is hard, but not impossible.

"We don't need a handful of people doing zero waste perfectly. We need millions of people doing it imperfectly." ~ Anne Marie Bonneau @zerowastechef ..... I say this every year - use what you have at home to wrap those Christmas presents. Reuse, reuse, reuse. 🎁 My favourite has always been old newspapers lying around the house. I've used them to wrap presents for - wow, I can't even remember - that's how long it's been! 🤓 It's simple, it's easily accessible, and the silver lining? It looks great! 😉 So here's your friendly yearly reminder to be a bit more environmentally conscious in whatever you do everyday, however big or small. Every little bit counts - even if you don't think it does. 🙏🏽 Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. 🌏 . . . . . . . . . . #SaveTheWorld #SaveThePlanet #Conscious #Environment #Reduce #Reuse #Recycle #🌏 #SustainableLiving #Sustainability #LiveSustainably #EveryBitCounts #Christmas #ChristmasPresents #ChristmasGifts #GiftWrapping #Newspaper #NewspaperArt #ReduceReuseRecycle #ThinkGreen #LiveGreen #ImperfectEnvironmentalist #DoMore #ChristmasInDubai #DubaiChristmas #MyDubai #MyUAE #ConsciousLiving #ZeroWaste #LowWaste https://www.instagram.com/p/CI-O7EKJEfj/?igshid=xavg95cjlq5v

Mother Nature- the personification of nature that focuses on the life-giving and nurturing aspects of nature by embodying it, in the form of the mother 🍃 . . Mother Nature is intelligent in its designs: plants purify our air, trees shade us from harmful rays, winds carry seeds & pollen, vast ecosystems intertwined to give new life🍃 . . Everything humans have needed to survive, and thrive, was first provided by the natural world around us: food, water, medicine, materials for shelter, and even natural cycles such as climate and nutrients🍃 . . Yet we have so disconnected ourselves from the natural world that it is easy—and often convenient—to forget that nature remains as giving as ever, even as it vanishes bit-by-bit🍃 . . Today is as good a day as any to remind ourselves all that nature does for us 🙌🏼 I challenge you to go outside and think of one thing you are grateful to nature for 🍃 . .

Product Reviews

If you follow me on Instagram, a few weeks ago I posted a series on my story of me making my first DIY shampoo. I used a cup and a half of coconut oil, a cup and three-quarters of aloe vera, and a little bit of tea tree oil. I was pretty excited about the whole endeavor. That same night I posted a picture of the Love, Beauty, and Planet bar soap that I bought, that soap will be the main thing…
