Going Green: Eco-friendly Tips From Across The Globe

Protecting the environment is the responsibility of each and every person on the planet

. Thats why many governments, countries and individuals have taken it upon themselves to go green. While some people are doing simple things such as arranging a boiler service to cut emissions, others are taking even more extreme measure so lets find out more.

Here are several eco-friendly tips from across the world:

Sky gardens

Its no secret that green spaces are disappearing fast in the UK. Development and housing projects are popping up left, right and centre and many natural areas are being destroyed. To overcome this problem, some businesses are moving onwards and upwards and are creating gardens in the sky. Theyre planting fruit, vegetables and plants on the roof and are using the oxygen produced by flowers to clean the air one step at a time. Barclays HQ in London has one and The Roof Gardens restaurant in Kensington is known across the city.

Eco-friendly parties

Believe it or not, people across the globe particularly in the USA are throwing eco-friendly birthday, wedding and christening parties. Thats right; people send out invitations on recyclable paper (or via email for optimum efficiency), make table decorations from sustainable materials and serve food thats organically grown. They even provide eco-friendly travel options for their guests (such as a carpool, or a fuel-efficient airline) and ask all gifts to be wrapped in recycled newspaper.

Green Christmases

Do you want to celebrate the festive season, while protecting the environment? If so, try buying a potted Christmas tree from your nearest home store. This will stop trees from being cut down unnecessarily and will mean you have a tree that can be planted in your garden at the end of the holidays. If you dont mind missing out on the smell and beauty of a real tree, you could even purchase a reusable tree, to cut down on deforestation but thats up to you.

Cycle for your supper

Youve heard of the phrase sing for your supper right? Well what about cycle for your supper? Back in 2010, a hotel in Denmark offered a free meal to paying guests who could generate at least 10 watts of energy for the hotel. Yes, the Crowne Plaza Copenhagen Towers the first in Denmark to have all its energy provided by renewable sources literally got people on their bikes and made them work for their meal now thats innovation.

Arranging a boiler service with a reputable company, turning your heating off when you go out and cutting back on water can all save energy but the above ideas are just brilliant.
