why every person should preform green cleaning ormg

17 Jan 2025 9:27 AM | Taylor Michael

the first thing that comes to my mind when addressing why every person should preform green cleaning is the sheer size of the pollution problem. when i look at the size of the "great pacific patch" i cant help but see it as a daunting task that needs to be corrected. No one individual is gonna solve this problem alone. but if EVERYBODY did there part little by little we could maybe make a dent in the problem or at least not contribute to it.

another reason why a person should try and embrace green cleaning is more of a long term approach. we need to establish these practices not only our people now but for future generations. the most likely approach is to play the long game. If we can promote recycling and bio degradable products to the next generation that would be a small victory within itself.

the health ramifications should also not be understated. the fact that you can get sick from eating a fish that has plastic particles in it is appalling dangerous. it should be a wake up call to everyone about how bad this problem really is. if our food sources and water sources aren't clean then this defeats the purpose.

we need to protect our ecosystems. if ecosystems fail we fail. we can address this through recycling reducing the chances that micro organisms stay in the systems they belong and don't attach themselves to plastic where they can potentially float to a system they don't belong in to disrupt the natural order of things.

the last and final step an individual can take is to promote green brands. if we can normalize green brands and make it a normal part of society it will take on a life of its own and do the work for us. it can also help train our detectors to spot "greenwashing" brands who act and advertise like they are environmentally friendly when they arent.
