There are many ways you can prevent pollution at home. Use durable reusable bags when you go shopping, too. Buy durable appliances and electronic equipment that last longer and can be repaired. Help keep these items out of our landfills by repairing instead of disposing. If you change your own oil, recycle the used oil at a service station or recycling center.
Many landfills also accept used oil for recycling.
Buy in bulk and avoid products with over packaging. When purchasing cleaning supplies, buy as little as you need. Buy less-toxic or nontoxic supplies. Keep your car well tuned. This will conserve gasoline and reduce harmful emissions.
