5 things you can do to make the world a better place
Let´s be honest: The news about our world and especially our nature are depressing. We all wanna do something for a better world, but we are too overwhelmed with the “How?”. In this blogpost I will share with you the 5 best lifestyle changes you can do to make the world a better place.
drive less
If you don’t have a bike you should buy one to use it for little things like grocery shopping or going to the post office. It´s a little change that makes a big difference for the world & your money. You also should go by train if your destination is only a few stations away.
buy ethical
I know what you are thinking “But ethical fashion is expensive & ugly.” It’s not expensive in my opinion PLUS buying something for a bit more is totally worth it if everyone involved making it get’s enough money & you get a quality piece. There are some shops online with pretty sustainable fashion for a good amount of money. My favorite is armedangles.com
go vegan
or at least vegetarian. I know you hear this a lot nowadays, but it really is a lifestyle change that´s good for you and the nature. Transition slowly & talk about it with your doctor if you have any medical problems that may be affected by your eating habits. Start with a few vegan meals per week & find things you love. Youtube has a lot of cool vegan meal ideas. Even if you can’t do it completely you totally should try to reduce milk products & go veggie. Better a little change than nothing.
minimize plastic
We use so much plastic & our oceans are filled with it. Try to always go shopping with your own reusable bag. I also suggest looking into the Zero Waste Movement on Youtube. There are so many little tips out there that help to reduce your plastic usage. If you have a supermarket near you that supports Zero Waste you should totally begin to go there for your grocery shopping.
be kind to people
Love also makes the world a better place. Always try to make someone´s day if you can. Give the person in front of you a compliment, give a homeless person food or write a friend a letter. Making others happy also makes you a happier person. We need more kindness in this world.
Do you have a tip what could also change the world to a better place?
