How You Can Help The Environment

Everyone uses tons of energy everyday, but using too much of it can harm the environment. If you want to help there are plenty of ways to do so.
Simple things can be done to conserve energy. Such as, turning a light off when you leave the room, using less hot water, and making sure you turn off a faucet when your done using it.

Recycling is a great way to help the environment.
The United States is the world's biggest consumer in paper. The amount of fax paper we use in a year is enough to reach from the Earth to the moon 26 times. If you recycle you can help reuse paper without cutting down more trees and wasting energy.
Effects of increasing temperature may cause Arctic Shrinkage, extreme weather and many other things that are harmful to our environment. To help you can do things like keeping your thermometer at 68 degrees in the winter.

The environment is at risk, but you can help it by changing the way you do certain things everyday.
