Total Credit Hours:
3 Hours

Living a green lifestyle means making thoughtful choices that reduce harm to the environment and promote sustainability. It involves small, everyday actions that protect natural resources and support a cleaner, healthier planet. Simple habits such as turning off lights when not in use, recycling materials, using reusable bags and bottles, and conserving water can make a meaningful difference. When many people adopt these habits, the positive impact grows even stronger, helping communities move toward a more sustainable future.

Making greener choices at home is a great place to start. Using energy-efficient appliances, switching to renewable energy sources, and choosing eco-friendly cleaning products can reduce both waste and energy use. Composting food scraps and avoiding single-use plastics also help protect the environment. Every action, no matter how small, contributes to a larger effort to care for the planet and future generations.

Transportation is another important part of sustainable living. Walking, biking, carpooling, or using public transit reduces carbon emissions and saves energy. As electric and hybrid vehicles become more available, choosing cleaner transportation options becomes easier and more affordable. Communities and governments can also encourage sustainable transportation by improving access to public transit and creating safe bike lanes.
