How do I live an Eco-Friendly life as a Uni student?

February 11, 2010 - 5:19 pm No Comments


Here’s some tips!

- If you don’t live on or near campus and need to travel to school, car pool or use public transportation.

- Paper usage is a big one which I’ve studied before. The product of paper is quite carbon intensive, and also removes trees. But paper often is wasted. Taking class notes on a laptop, and printing double sided papers (if your prof allows it) will reduce paper usage. Avoid things like post-it notes. Borrow textbooks from a library or friend before purchasing one, if possible. Recycle your paper, too.

- Eat local and organic food. Local food does not have to be transported far. Think of how that banana you bought from somewhere in tropics got to your hand?

- If you buy coffee/tea, use a re-usable coffee mug. Don’t buy bottled water, use a re-usable water container (if your local water is safe).

- Re-usable grocery bags for shopping.

All kinds of things! Living eco-friendly is really a matter of living with a good conscious and using a little common sense. Good luck!
