Reduce, Reuse, then Recycle. Buy and use recycled products. Use brushes or rollers for painting instead of sprays. Keep dust down when digging or moving earth. Buy and use products in their non-aerosol form.
Propellants used in aerosol cans contribute to pollution.
Select products with less packaging. Packaging consumes energy when it s made, generates harmful volatile organic compounds when it s printed and produces carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide when it s burned. And when thrown away it goes to the landfills, which generate greenhouse gases. Plant low-maintenance landscaping. Stay on paved roads whenever possible.
