- . Avoid the use of hot water in at least two loads a week. Save energy (and about 226.5 kg of CO2 per year) and see less wrinkling. In addition, when using the "short cycle" in the electric washing machines, saving about 45.46 liters of water per load.
- turn off computers at night and activate the power saving option
. A standard monitor left on overnight uses enough energy to print 5.300 copies. Turning off our computers we can nowrar to 430.35 kg of CO2 per year.
Let us use our own bags
. When we do shopping, choose products with minimal packaging and reusable bags we take with us.
Our commitment and our actions help preserve and protect the planet for future generations to know the beauty and splendor of the natural world. All work together to save the wonderful range of life, which are included, which lives there.
