What are the practices of low-carbon life?

Specific measures to practice low-carbon life;

1, open a window

Open the window to replace the indoor air conditioner; When air conditioning is used in summer, the temperature rises slightly by several degrees. Statistics show that as long as everyone turns up the air conditioner by one degree, the country can save 3.3 billion kWh of electricity every year.

2. Pay bills online

Online banking and billing operations can not only save trees, avoid driving to the bank and emitting unnecessary carbon dioxide on payday, but also reduce the energy consumption of paper documents during transportation.

Step 3 hang the clothesline

Research shows that 60% of the "energy" of a garment is released in the process of cleaning and drying. It should be noted that warm water and cold water should be used when washing clothes, not hot water; After washing clothes, hang them on the clothesline to dry naturally. Don't put them in the dryer. In this way, the total amount of carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced by 90%.

4. Bring your own shopping bag

More than 500 billion plastic bags are consumed worldwide every year, of which less than 3% can be recycled. Plastic bags are all made of polyethylene, which will take thousands of years to biodegrade after being buried, and during this period, harmful greenhouse gases will be generated. Don't forget to bring your shopping bag when you go to the grocery store next time.

Step 5 give up steak

According to the data of the United Nations, the global meat processing industry accounts for 50% of the total greenhouse gas emissions. Dr. Henning Steinfeld, head of FAO's Animal Husbandry Information and Policy Section, said, "Animal husbandry is a major cause of serious environmental problems today".

6. Taomi water

Daily rice washing water can be used to wash hands and clean furniture, which is clean and natural. Not only that, Taomi water can also be used to water flowers, wash hair and make free skin care products.

7. Mask

Don't throw away the used mask paper. When it is used to clean jewelry, furniture or belts, it will not only glow, but also leave the fragrance of mask paper.

8. Others

Use instant messaging tools such as email, MSN and QQ, and use fax printers less.

Perfume that is about to expire can be sprayed on dried flowers stuffed in pillows, on washing water and on mopping the floor.

Having a short meeting is also a kind of saving. Lighting, air conditioning and power for public address can be saved.

Unplug any electrical appliances when they are not in use.

Low-carbon life is to minimize energy consumption, especially carbon dioxide emissions, to achieve low carbon, reduce atmospheric pollution and slow down ecological deterioration. Mainly change the details of life from three aspects: electricity saving, solar terms and recycling.
