About me

Hi, my name is Linus, and I'm a 14 year old boy, and I just want to tell you the reason why I decided to write this website.

I wanted to write this website beacause of the current climate crisis, and I didn't want to wait, beacause I want to take action now, like I think everyone should do.

 

I also want to say that some sources of information might show some differences in their numbers and stats, and the data also changes over time, but I will try my best to update the site with the most recent and relevant information as often as I possibly can.

Complete list of all tips

​Here is a complete list of all the tips and tricks shared on this site:

  • ​Drive less! Drive less, and use more public transportation or walk! This reduces your carbon footprint a lot, because you either stop all emissions by walking, or use less energy to transport more people!

  • Travel sustainably! Try travelling locally as much as you can and with busses or trains instead of driving or flying! This way, you get as much as possible out of the energy needed to travel with these vehicles, since there is more people taking advantage of it.

  • Save energy! Save electricity, especially if electrcity in your home comes from fossil fuels, you can do this by showering for a shorter amount of time, turning off electrical appliances like lights, fans and fausets when they're not in use, and also you can try lowering the temperature in your home and wearing more clothes instead(assuming you live in a place where your house needs heating).

  • Be wise about your food! Eat more local food and eat less meat. Many different kinds of food needs transportation from around the world, which causes a lot of greenhouse gas emissions. You can limit these greenhouse gas emissions by eating foods that haven't travelled for such a distance. You can also eat less meat, you reduce methane emissions by eating less meat, beacause producing meat often causes a lot of methane emissions, which is a really strong greenhouse gas, as well as CO2 emissions from transportation.

  • Make a shopping list! Make a list of what food you're going to buy before you go shopping, and stick to it!

  • Save leftovers! Instead of throwing away leftovers, store them and make a meal with them later so they don't go to waste, but make sure that you don't wait for too long to eat them, or else they will go bad.

  • The expiration date is misleading! Don't be afraid of the expiring date, smell, see, touch and taste if a food has gone bad before you potentially throw it away!

  • ​Don't use palm oils! Try to not use palmoils, as when they get produced it can lead to substantial forestloss, as palm oil comes from palm trees.

  • Plant plants! You can plant some plants at home, as plants is a great way to store CO2 naturally! There is a lot of possibilities for what to grow at home, and you don't need to much space either, try to do some research on what you can grow and how, and then try it!

  • Use less paper! Try also to use less paper, or maybe something else to write on, both at home, and at work

  • Use less plastic! Plastic can harm animals, using less of it will reduce the risk of animals dying beacause of it.

  • Recycle! Try recycling and picking up plastic and trash so it doesn't end up in the nature!

  • Make a beehive! Make a beehive or a wonder garden for animals by planting a lot of plants and giving out food and water to animals and insects in your garden. If you don't have a garden, or isn't capable of doing so, a simple birdfeeder on your balcony can do the trick! 

  • Recycle! By recycling you make sure that plastic gets taken care of and doesn't end up in the nature!

  • Use less plastic! You can do this by buying products that don't have plastic or that have less plastic. For example you can try to buy food that is stored in a glass container, and not in a container made of plastic, you can also store leftovers in glass jars and containers!

  • Pick some plastic! Go outside and pick up some plastic, by doing this you prevent that plastic goes into the ocean and potentially hurt other animals, you can pick up plastic whenever you see it on the street, and then throw it in a nearby garbage can!
