One way you can go green is by becoming a vegan or a vegetarian. If you become a vegetarian you don’t eat meat, if you become a vegan you don’t eat meat or animal products. If your not eating meat workers will stop selling it. If the farmers stop selling meat then there won’t be so many animals on the farm. The farmers won’t have so much manure and it wont end up going into our water. Manure has lots of nitrogen so if the water gets too much nitrogen it will make the animals in their habitats die.
Another way you can go green is to bring you own bags to the market. That way you don’t waste plastic bags at the market. You should also try to use very little plastic bottles. If they end up falling on the ground or into the storm drain they could get in the ocean. When they get in the ocean the oils that are in the plastic of the bottle melt in the heat and when they get in the ocean the sea animals consume the oils. These oils in the plastic water bottles are poisonous and the sea animals will become sick or die.
You could also try to use methods of transportation other than driving. You could try riding the bus, riding your bike, or walking. You could also get a hybrid car, which runs on electricity and gas. When you drive the burning fuels create smog and human’s lungs will get weak, which can result in death. You can also make a difference at home. You can use rags instead of paper towels. You could also wash your car on your lawn so the harmful chemicals won’t go into the storm drain and straight into the ocean.
There are also other ways you can help the environment. You can try to not let the water run while washing up. Wasting water is also a very important problem in our environment. Just saving a little bit of water can make a big change. Our watershed is slowly dying. That’s why we need to take care of it. If we don’t lots of ecosystems can die. Helping the environment little by little can make a big change.
