Human effort is the only cited cause of many of the environmental problems faced by humanity today. . Sad but true, although man was to rule over all creation and serve as ambassadors, the human race instead created havoc. But the saddest thing is that people also reap the consequences of their actions – after all, according to Newton, every action involves an equal and opposite response.
To alleviate many environmental problems, everyone should get involved and contribute to helping the Earth by engaging in environmentally friendly activities. Building environmentally friendly houses can be of great help in mitigating the negative effects of human activity.
The use of environmentally friendly materials in house construction is a viable alternative to those that produce environmentally harmful substances such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or vinyl used in pipes, and when burning, they produce dioxins – toxic pollutants. Today, many sustainable earth-friendly materials are available. Adobe-style homes that use sun-dried mud and sand bricks are very popular in the Southwest of the United States. Also more and more popular are buildings made of bales, in which piles of straw in bales are used for additional wall insulation.
Using earth-friendly materials in your home is also another way to build eco-friendly homes. Composting toilets work in the same way as regular toilets, but their ultimate purpose is to compost human waste. Solar lamps absorb the sun’s energy most of the day and turn it into light energy at night.
To complement the above-mentioned strategies, people should also use earth-friendly ways in their daily lives. The three Rs of recycling, reducing and reusing can significantly reduce the pollution, global warming and acid rain problems caused by the use of plastic. Helping you save domestic resources like using rain-collecting barrels is another way to help the planet.
Building environmentally friendly homes inside and out can be a small step for humanity, but it can be of great help to our sick planet.
