2011年走向绿色环保:我的新年决心
一步一步地拯救地球!
作者:特雷西·万德福德,雅虎贡献者网络
2010年11月8日
每年这时候,人们立下新年的决心,这个新年我将要在拯救地球方面有所作为,这
一年我将琢磨绿色环保是什么,以及我如何能够造成一个更小的碳足迹。
我已经实践绿色环保的原则,所以我怎么能改进呢?今天我正在调查我在明年一月
份将要做些什么,我需要有一个计划才能成功,在来年我将强调四个我选择为重点的方
面,它们是回收家庭废弃物、厨房里的塑料使用、准备一个肥堆、及食用纯素食。
在我的住宅区,周一是回收日,我有一个绿色箱子装满了可回收物列明在路边,我
能够实现这个目标,我们也有一个我从未去过的邻里回收与重用设施,我将要去上门看
一下还有什么服务,不知道回收些什么吗?询问一下,上网看一下附近提供了哪些服务
,我可以把那些我无法放在路边的物品拿去回收设施,物品如油漆、汽车流体、及玻璃
将要被运去然后放下在回收站。
我想进一步地避免在家里塑料的使用,塑料是由石油造成的,那是一个不可再生的
资源,我如何能够实现这个目标呢?我需要使用更多可重复用的玻璃、陶瓷、或不锈钢
容器,任何可以容易回收的材料,如纸、玻璃、或金属罐将是走向绿色环保好的选择,
布手提包或串袋是绿色的,应该用来代替塑料。
拿一个肥堆桶或在我的院子里做一个肥堆区是一个绿色的选择,这将是我的另外一
个决心,有许多网站我可以去咨询信息,我需要有一个厨房容器来放食物废料然后拿到
外面去,在院子里必须有一个指定的区域为肥堆区,对我来说将会有困难做得到,没有
人说那是容易的,是吗?也可以购买蠕虫来帮助做肥堆,这听起来总是更加有趣。
成为纯素食者是我们绿色环保足迹很重要的一部分,有些人不能完成这项艰巨的任
务,更重要的是我们应该尽力去接近这个目标,自从今年二月我已经没有吃肉食了,我
仍然还不是一个纯素食者,我还吃鸡蛋和乳制品,纯素食是我要继续的一个决心,我对
我走向纯素食的进展感觉良好,这是一项个人的也是困难的选择,有时候那会影响你的
家庭,那也是一个有益的决心。
你为你的新年决心准备好了吗?让我们使明年有所不同,你的新年决心将会是拯救
地球的决心或者至少是进一步地走向绿色环保方向的决心吗?

Saving the Earth One Footprint at a Time!
Tracy Vanderford, Yahoo! Contributor Network
Nov 8, 2010
Every year at this time people make New Year's resolutions. This New Year I
will make a difference in saving the earth. This year I will contemplate on
what is green and how I can make a smaller carbon footprint.
I already practice green principles, so how can I improve? Today I am
researching what I am going to do in January. I need to have a plan in order
to be successful. I will highlight four areas in which I choose to focus in
the coming year. They are the recycling of household waste, the use of
plastics in the kitchen, having a compost pile and eating vegan.
Mondays are recycling day in my neighborhood. I have a green bin full or
recyclables to set out at the curb. I am good at fulfilling this goal. We
also have a neighborhood recycling and reuse facility that I have never been
to. I will need to visit there to see what else is available. Don't know
what to recycle? Find out. Look online and then see what is offered nearby.
I can take items to the recycling facility that I can't put on the curb.
Things such as paint, automotive fluids, and glass will need to be driven
and dropped off to be recycled.
I want to do better at avoiding the use of plastics at home. Plastic is made
from petroleum, a nonrenewable resource. How can I accomplish this? I need
to be using more reusable containers of glass, ceramic, or stainless steel.
Any material that can be easily recycled such as paper, glass, or metal cans
will be good choices for going green. Cloth totes or string bags are green
and should be used in place of plastics.
Getting a composter or making a compost area in my yard is a green option.
This will be another of my resolutions. There are many websites I can turn
to for information. I need to have a kitchen bin to put food scraps in to
take outside. There has to be a specific area designated in the yard. This
is going to be tough for me to accomplish. No one said it would be easy did
they? Worms can also be purchased to help with the composting. This is
sounding more interesting all the time.
Being vegan is a very important part of our green footprint. Some people
cannot accomplish this difficult task. More importantly we should do our
best at flirting with this goal. I have not eaten meat since last February,
yet I am still not a vegan. I eat eggs and dairy products. This is a
resolution of mine to continue. I feel very good about what I have
accomplished toward becoming vegan. This is a very personal and difficult
choice that sometimes affects your family. It is also a rewarding resolution.
Are you prepared for your New Year's resolution? Let's make this year
different. Will yours be a resolution for saving the earth or at least a
step in the green direction?

and make more things by hand. Don't know if I can stop eating cheese and
milk and be a vegan this year though... | yo 发帖数: 2534 | 3 The complete list of my new year resolution... :p
