World Environment Day is on June 5th, yet environmental protection should be an everyday activity. Saving water and taking the bus or the subway can help protect the earth in the long run.
Your wardrobe(衣柜) could be environmentally friendly too. Here is some advice.
★Buy less. Many people take buying unnecessary things as a way to make themselves feel relaxed. Nowadays, almost everyone buys more clothes than needed. Find a better and healthier way to relax, because unnecessary shopping could become another pressure on both your wallet and the environment.
★If you still can’t change old shopping habits, try to buy less denim (斜纹粗棉布) and fewer fur (毛皮) coats. Making just one pair of denim trousers can pollute (污染) the water, and fur coats could cause many animals to die. Natural materials are good for not only the environment but also the mind and body.
★Try not to dry-clean your clothes, as dry-cleaning will cause a lot of problems and be bad for the environment.
★Smart shopping. Buying second-hand clothes is a smarter idea, especially for those you only wear at a special time. What’s more, you can borrow clothes if possible. This can also help you save money and protect the environment.
