By its very nature, apartment living an eco-friendlier way to live than other modern lifestyles. This is because while living in your apartment, the odds are that you are in a urban center. Living in an urban center means that you’re close by to many things and you don’t need to use as many resources as your other modern lifestyle counterparts do. Yet there are still countless ways to make your apartment even more environmentally sustainable. And great news for you, many of them are relatively simple. Reducing your ecological footprint and having a greater positive impact on the world around you can be a matter of making a few minor changes!
For example, purchasing all-natural cleaning supplies instead of those containing chemicals can be an important step. Those cleaning supplies that contain harmful chemicals can find their way into the city’s waterways after they go down your drain. Another example is switching your light fixtures to LED bulbs. With this switch, you’ll consume less electricity and burn fewer resources every time you flip the switch. If you want to furnish your place, try looking at estate sales or resale shops to rescue pieces from the landfill, instead of buying new.
Embracing these minor changes goes a long way! For additional tips on going green in your apartment, continue reading the infographic below!
