Aerosols damage air quality, although, according to a 2018 article in scientific journal Nature Communications, their effects on temperature vary according to the part of the world where they are used.   Bottled water Plastic water bottles take 500 years to break down and they release microparticles which are dangerous to health.   Throwing chewing gum on the ground Chewing gum consists primarily of neutral plastic and, as well as littering the streets, it chokes and kills many birds who mistake it for food.   Washing with the tap running Scientists from North Carolina State University (USA) Have calculated that we would save over 1,400 litres per person per month just by turning off the tap when we wash our hands and brush our teeth.   Eating foods that contain palm oil Chewing gum consists primarily of neutral plastic and, as well as littering the streets, it chokes and kills many birds who mistake it for food.   Leaving cigarette butts on the beach This is the most commonly found waste on the coast, they take up to 10 years to break down and release contaminating metals.   Throwing disposable wipes down the toilet These do not break down like toilet paper and they are responsible for most blockages in water treatment plants and sewers.   Releasing helium balloons into the air This is extremely dangerous to birds, fish and other marine animals that can choke if they eat them by mistake.   Throwing batteries in the rubbish They contain mercury — one of the most toxic metals in the world — and take 500 to 1,000 years to break down. Just one battery can contaminate up to 3,000 litres of water.   Throwing away plastic six-pack ring carriers without cutting them up These plastic rings trap animals like fish and turtles, causing mutilation, malformation and even death. ACTIONS THAT PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT Now we are aware of how we are damaging the environment, we need to find solutions and change our habits. Here are some suggestions from the United Nations (UN):   Separate your waste: don't mix your household waste, separate everything into different containers.   Recycle and reuse: stop using single-use plastics and always choose packaging and items that can be reused several times. Before you throw something away, think whether you can give it a second use.   Save energy: make use of natural light, install LED bulbs, switch off lights you don't need, adjust your thermostat and air conditioning.   Eat organic food: buy fruit and vegetables free from fertilisers and other pollutants.   Turn off taps: ensure they are not dripping when you finish washing up or washing.   Use sustainable means of transport: walk, pedal or user public transport whenever you can.   Do not use single-use bags: use cotton bags instead of plastic and paper ones.   Fill your house with flowers: plants and trees produce oxygen and are essential to nature.
