A lot of people believe that there is nothing to be done to safeguard the planet. However, there are actually many things that every day people can do such as recycling, using alternative forms of transportation, and reusing clothes that can protect the environment. 

To begin with, every day people can find ways of recycling their trash instead of contributing to the waste problem. For example, most plastics can be recycled or repurposed for other uses. As a consequence, less trash ends up in waterways and it doesn’t clog the oceans.

Another thing most people can do is walking and biking. These are modes of transportation available to almost everyone. Using these alternative forms of transport significantly reduces the amount of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere. In fact, cities that invest in this kind of infrastructure report having 30% less emissions than cities without.

Finally, almost 90% of all clothing ends up in landfills instead of being recycled. People can donate their clothing instead or find other ways of fixing and extending the life of their garments. This, in the end, can greatly reduce the amount of waste in landfills.

In conclusion, there are many things the average person can do, such as reusing clothing, recycling plastic, and walking and biking to reduce their environmental footprint.
