Global warming, pollution, and climate change are some of the reasons why saving the environment is something people of all ages should do. Boca Raton Assisted Living encourages seniors to do their part in helping save Mother Earth. Here are three simple ways to go green.

1.    Switch to Energy-Efficient Products for Your Home

Energy-efficient products not only help save the environment but also reduce your monthly energy bill. Motion-sensor lights automatically switch on/off every time your elderly loved one enters or leaves the room. You can also add programmable thermostats so seniors can control different room temperatures.

2.    Learn About Recycling

Aside from bottles, jars, and cans, you can also recycle glass, metals, paper, cardboard, and more. If you want to know more about recycling, you can contact your local government office to learn what you can and cannot recycle.

3.    Lessen or Omit Single-Use Plastic

With the number of plastic waste people uses all day, we’ve accumulated a lot of waste. Plastic can take thousands of years to degrade completely and single-use plastic can take up space and pollute our oceans. If you want to reduce your use of plastic, Plastic Oceans and other organization have resources to help you.
