Another way I reduce the amount of trash I throw away is by using cloth diapers on my son as often as possible. I use cloth diapers because I believe they are safer for the environment than disposable diapers. Cloth diapers may be reused many times, while disposables only once. Some people argue that cloth diapers are not environmentally safe because it takes detergent and water to clean them and energy to dry them, but I disagree. The detergent I use is phosphorous free, so the water, if properly treated, doesn't harm the environment and can be reused.
Water can also regenerate itself faster than a landfill.
Every little bit helps save our Earth. By recycling and composting the items that I can, I make a positive impact in the world in which I live. I believe that in order to leave a clean and healthy environment for my son to live in and for the entire inhabitants of our planet, we need to implement an Earth-wisdom revolution. In an ever-changing world we need to do all that we can to help our planet. If we use the resources that are here for us, then we need to also give them back.
