Plastic is a convenience, but both regular and micro plastics can hurt the environment. Therefore, action must be taken to reduce their use.
There are many d 1 ways to reduce your plastic use at home. To begin with, be sure to properly recycle everything you can and throw away what you can’t, such as plastic cups and dishes. If you’d like to take further steps to make your home free from plastics, consider using simple alternatives(替代品) to everyday products like personal care items. For example, a m 2 of baking soda vinegar, hot water and lemon can effectively replace traditional cleaners that come in harmful plastic bottles.
Shopping may be one of the hardest things to do when trying to avoid plastic. Replacing plastic shopping bags with reusable ones is a good s 3 , and there is much more you can do. Before you walk out of the door, make sure you have an accurate shopping list with e 4 what you will need or eat. This will not only reduce food waste but also the amount of plastic packaging you throw away every year.
Believe it or not, it is possible to avoid plastics while on vacation. You may book one of the hotels that have l 5 the use of plastics. These hotels hardly provide guests with the plastics that can only be used once. As for take-home gifts, don’t buy products made from plastics. Stick to buying those made from natural materials like metals or plants. Or i 6 , give up traditional gifts completely and give someone a picture you took yourself, which can be more special for the purpose of helping the planet.
It seems like a difficult task to take all the actions immediately, so begin small and take larger steps towards a plastic-free life. Don’t be afraid to share your stories with others. While a s 7 person’s effort wouldn’t make much difference, only many people’s actions can change the world for the better. If we can help other people make the change to a plastic-free life, we’ll be doing the world a huge favor.

Deal with waste p 10 . Never leave garbage behind. Don’t abandon your food wrappers, cans or leftovers. Take out what you take in.
Leave what you find. Take home any camping or biking gear, but leave behind that cool rock or flower.
Reduce campfire d 11 . Build your fire only in an appropriate location. Check on the conditions of the area before going there. Sometimes building campfires isn’t allowed. Never build a fire when weather conditions are too dry or windy,
Respect wildlife. You should stay at least 100 meters away from wildlife, so you don’t d 12 any animals. Getting too close could be fatal. Protect your food so animals can’t get into it, and don’t feed the animals anything.
Be kind to other visitors. Don’t make loud noises or play loud music when you’re out in natural environments. It annoys both the animals and humans. Don’t travel in large g 13 as it makes it troublesome for too many people to move around on the trail.
These seven principles can help e 14 share the outdoors comfortably. We all need to take care of the earth we know and love.
