When we finish cans of soda in our house, we throw them away in our recycling bin. This helps to reduce the amount of waste that is sent to landfills and incinerators. @franklinlorax#apeswaste
Less people have been using their cars due to quarantine and are instead using their bikes for some fresh air and something to do. This is great for our air and environment because there are less pollutants and emissions going into the air. #apesair@franklinlorax
Sometimes I like to turn off my lights in my room so the natural light can filter in my which means shutting off coal powered lights and conserving energy! #apesenergy@franklinlorax
My family and I make sure to keep things unplugged that we are not using. This saves a lot more money and a lot more energy then if we had it plugged in all the time. @franklinlorax#apesenergy
At my house, we have our thermostat programmed a certain way to conserve energy. At night and when we’re not home, we have it programmed to be cooler. #apesenergy@franklinlorax
Like my dresser and many other things in my house are made out of wood like other people. But people don’t think about it, but many trees and animal habitats are being cut down daily and we need to try to lower the logging operations around the world. #apesland@franklinlorax
Like my kitchen table many things in my house and many people homes are made up of wood so it is very important that we manage logging operations and keep living in a sustainable world. @franklinlorax#apesland
My driveway is made out of concrete, which has cement in it. Making cement results in high levels of CO2 output & weather changes. I would recommend switching to bluestone when making driveways to help decrease climate change and help the environment. @franklinlorax#apesland
For community credit myself along with others, were able to cut down some invasive species that were called buckthorn, to lower the population due to it causing an ecological imbalance. #apeseco@franklinlorax
Through an extra credit opportunity, we were able to cut down an invasive species called buckthorn that out-competes native plant species with its fast growth rate and distinctive phenology. @franklinlorax#apeseco
