Hello guys! In the last posts we have talked about how plastic is dangerous and bad for the nature and, in this article, we are going to tell you how to avoid using plastic unnecessarily.
The most important thing is of course to do the separate collection, but, you must know that most of the plastic can be reused only once and that, the reusable plastic isn't (really often) recycled.
So, there are some precautions to do.
Let's start!
1. Remember to always bring with you a shop bag made of tissue! You won't use a plastic one!
2. When you buy products, look at those which don't have many plastic packagings!
Buy these products!
Without plastic, they are green!

This use of plastic is useless!

3. Pay attention to beauty products (shampoos, creams, make-up products etc.). If they have got microplastics don't buy them and choose another product! Through the sewage, plastic will go in the sea!
4. Use cotton bathrobes, not disposable ones!
5. If you like fishing, remember not to leave the fishing line in the seaside!
6. Don't use plastic straws! It isn't necessary to use them and, if you want, you can buy some metal ones!
7. Please, don't use balloons in parties! They aren't essential and they pop in a bit of time...
8. Chewing gums are really dangerous for the environment and for you! In fact they are made with some damaging materials and plastic derived!
9. Search to buy detergents and food that are in bulk!
11. Many detergents are dangerous and harmful for us and for the environment! It's better using vinegar and baking soda for cleaning!
12. Don't use lighters! They decompose after hundred of years!
It's better to use a match.
13. You mustn't absolutely buy plastic plates, glasses and cutlery!!!
If each one of us buy them, we will be submerged by a plastic sea!
14. Don't buy (and drink) fruit juices! Usually they are often in PET bottles, that are very difficult to dispose! Let's make lemonade and orange juice at home! They are also much better!
15. Avoid prepackaged snacks and use reusable containers for carrying the food to school or to work.
16. Don't cover every food with plastic! It will be better also for your health! In fact, plastic transmit carcinogenic substances to the food that you will eat!
17. A very important thing is to don't buy plastic bottles!!! If you have it at home try recycle them and from now on you won't use them anymore!
18. Please, if you read this article start doing these things and share them with your friends! You'll save the world!
